Environmental Technologies: imageRUNNER ADVANCE
The imageRUNNER ADVANCE lineup of next-generation network multifunction office systems were developed to be environmentally advanced devices. Even the lineup's high-speed color machines incorporate the same energy-saving on-demand fixing technology employed in copying machines. This video introduces various environmental technologies and considerations employed at each step of the product lifecycle, such as the use of bio-based plastic materials and lead-free components.

- Toner Cartridge Recycling:
A Continuous Journey
(09'12'') - In 1990, Canon took the lead globally in commencing recycling efforts for toner cartridges. With a simple replacement, these cartridges, which represent the core component of laser printers, make printing possible at any time without a hitch. As laser printers continue to be widely utilized on the world front, Canon maintains its worldwide endeavors to collect and recycle used toner cartridges without relying on landfill disposal whatsoever.
