BLI has produced its first environmental white paper that analyzes BLI-tested energy consumption and recovery time across all product categories, segments and manufacturers tested to date.
Environmental Trends and Projects white paper includes:
- Year-over-year projected annual energy consumption data
- Recovery time trends
- Predecessor vs. current model annual energy consumption comparisons
The white paper focuses on five of the most popular A4 printer and printer MFP groups, and five of the most popular A3 MFP groups. For each group, BLI provides year-over-year projected annual energy consumption and recovery time data as well as side-by-side energy consumption comparisons of predecessor/replacement models in each group.
Given the technological advances and stricter environmental guidelines the market has seen since 2009, it is not surprising that the overarching trend across the industry is a reduction in energy consumption. But perhaps most interesting is the degree to which energy consumption has been reduced in some segments, with one product group showing an average projected annual energy consumption reduction of as much as 66 percent from 2009.
Environmental claims have gained popularity over the past five years. But they’re not always accompanied by quantifiable, year-over-year data to back up said environmental claims. BLI has tested the majority of A4- and A3-size document imaging product lines introduced each year by the top manufacturers, providing us with an intimate glimpse into the ongoing performance of such devices.
