fnishers for the d-Color MF551 and
d-Color MF651 operate more quietly
than their predecessors.
Olivetti goes a long way to ensuring
our products conform to stringent
environmental directives. In particular,
long-life drums and developers in
copiers and printers are highly reliable
and productive, reducing service
intervals, maintenance costs and user
downtime. Low cost, high yield toner
cartridges deliver more pages for less
money and when the toner runs out
all that needs changing is an easy-to-
replace cartridge and not the drum, as
these are now separate units.
Technologies employed to achieve
low energy consumption include the
use of polymerised toner, which has a
considerably lower fusing temperature
when compared to conventional
pulverised toners. As the fusing process
accounts for approximately 60 per
cent of the total power consumption,
the adoption of polymerised toner can
secure considerable energy savings
for the customer. In addition, the
production of the polymerised toner
itself delivers a 40 per cent reduction
in CO2 compared to the former
pulverisation process.
Olivetti’s colour high speed devices
such as the Olivetti d-Color MF451,
d-Color MF551 and d-Color MF651,
also utilise state-of-the-art Induction
Fusing technology which delivers heat
both quickly and effciently during the
fusing process. Customers who enjoy
the benefts of using induction hobs at
home for their cooking will understand
just how quick and effcient this
technology can be. In fact, these high
speed MFPs are ready for action from
cold in just 45 seconds, and can be
ready to print from sleep mode in just
12 seconds!
Power save mode
All Olivetti d-Color MFPs offer
power saving modes to reduce
energy consumption in idle phases.
These modes activate automatically
depending on the time setting
programmed by the customer’s
administrator. The MFP system will
restart automatically from sleep mode
when the user operates a key on the
control panel or a print job is incoming.
To maximise energy savings, incoming
faxes will not restart the machine but
are stored in secured memory until the
machine is restarted by another action.
Low Power and Sleep Mode can also
be controlled by a daily, weekly and
date-based timer. The administrator
can set a start and end time for regular
business days and programme a
machine to shut down completely on
weekends and holidays.
In Sleep Mode, our fastest machine,
the d-Color MF651, draws only 12W
of power.
Environmental care policy
Olivetti applies its environmental care
policy across its entire product range.
All Olivetti products adhere to global
standards of responsible packaging,
which is recycled and recyclable, and
are manufactured according to the ISO
14001 standard.
The latest range of A4 MFPs has
been designed to comply with the new
RoHS regulations. The biggest change
is that cold-cathode fuorescent lights
used for scanning have been replaced
by energy saving LED lights. This has an
impact on a business’ monthly power
bill and contributes to a TEC value
that’s around 8 per cent lower than
previous models.
User documentation for setting
up the machines can be downloaded
Eco-friendly calculators
Olivetti’s eco-friendly range of professional
calculators is available with antiseptic
keypads that help to prevent the spread of
harmful bacteria or micro-organisms to users.
The calculators deliver impressive quality,
performance and reliability levels; improved
energy effciency; and are made from recycled
and easily recyclable materials. To help save
energy, the calculators automatically switch off
their displays after three minutes of inactivity,
retaining current calculations in their memory.
via the internet or on CD to reduce
printing; and all models are able
to handle 100 per cent recycled
paper, further reducing a customer’s
environmental footprint without
affecting output quality or warranty.
Today, manufacturers have to
prove their worth in more than output
capability. The environment needs to
be cared for and the responsibility for
that rests with producers. By supplying
products that exceed industry
standards for energy effciency and
resource utilisation, Olivetti is reducing
our environmental impact and that of
our customers.
