New Kyocera printer family reduces power consumption by 30%.

The TEC of Kyocera’s new printer family is 30% lower than its predecessors with same print speed. Lower energy consumption results in both lower electricity bills for customers and lower CO2 emissions for the environment.

The new 500,000 pages printer drum, which lasts up to 50 times longer than the competition, is the next phase of Kyocera Ecosys technology which is synonymous with long life components. Using long life components as standard gives Kyocera printers the lowest cost per page in their class, an important consideration when printing in large volumes.

Some print runs require additional security to ensure only authorised access to sensitive information. For this reason, Kyocera’s new family of printers are all equipped with Private Printing as standard. The optional Card Authentication security feature gives extra peace of mind.

“The new Kyocera generation of printers benefits from the technology used in the BLI award winning FS-4020DN, which won the BLI ‘Pick of the Year’ award in 2009 and the BLI ‘Outstanding Energy Efficiency’ award in 2011,” says Berthold Hurtz, Product Manager Kyocera Document Solutions Europe. “As the new printers are faster, more energy efficient and use more advanced technology, as well as having a new, attractive 360 degree design, we look forward to seeing how they can improve our customers’ working experience.”
