Green IQ Quiz: Paperless Office?
When do you think we will reach the paperless office?
A. 2015
B. 2020
C. Too far out to predict
D. Never
12
In Fact: Paperless Office
Green Tip: Move to a Less Paper Office and Choose Environmentally Sound Papers
• The paperless office was predicted in the 1970’s
• Connecting an office to the internet increases paper consumption by 40 percent
• Office workers throw away 45 percent of everything they print by the end of the day
• Some paper – like banner sheets –can have a life of only 30 seconds
13
Steps Toward a Sustainable Paper Cycle
Xerox equipment is designed for efficient use of paper:
• Print management features
• Recycled paper runs reliably
• On-ramp to digital document management
• Workflow SW tools
Print Wisely
Responsible Sourcing
Environmentally-sound papers:•Forestry Practices •Paper Mills•Environmentally Sound Paper Offerings
• (FSC, PEFC, SFI)• Recycled Paper
Responsible Use
�Xerox paper, packaging, and prints are recyclable
Responsible Disposal
14
Moving to a Less Paper Campus & Office
• Be Selective about what you print & print only the quantity needed
• Duplex – use both sides of paper and print multiple images per page
• Go digital – read, send and store digital documents
• Business benefits:
– Cut paper costs
– Cut storage costs
– Increases productivity
Actions taken:•Set printer drivers to default duplex•Green campaign – print only what is needed
Results*:32% reduction in annual paper use$53K in annual savings
Xerox Customer Cuts Paper Use
*Across 20,000 employees; volume declines also contributed to reduction
15
Emulsion Aggregation (EA) Toner
40% – 45% less toner mass
Small and Spherical EA Toner
Conventional Toner
Paper
� Breakthrough process for producing color and black toners:
� Less toner mass per page for smaller toner
� Less toner waste for spherical toner
� Less energy to produce and to print
Paper
New toner technology
16
New solid ink print technology
ColorQube waste: 88 pounds
Total waste produced printing 22k pages per month over 4 year life
Comparable Laser MFD: 815 pounds
90% less waste
• Less to manufacture
• Less to transport
• Less to store
• Less to dispose of
less impact on the environment

Technology innovation: Long Life Parts
Protective overcoat increases photoreceptor’s usable life >60%
Reduces the need for replacement cartridges by 43%
Drop-in replacement: no need for product reengineering
Case example: Laser MFP photoreceptor cartridge*
$ Business benefits
$ Reduced workflow interruptions
$ Improved productivity
$ Fewer service calls
Environmental benefits
• Resource savings: 170,000 pounds/yr
• Less waste generation
• Less transportation
Enough energy saved to power 70 homes
