Canon introduces new series of remanufactured MFPs
January 26, 2021
Canon UK announced the latest additions to its line of remanufactured devices – the imageRUNNER ADVANCE EQ80 4200 Series and 6275i.
Boasting the robust productivity and security standards of the 2nd generation of imageRUNNER ADVANCE technology, these new introductions help organisations commit to their sustainability goals whilst also benefitting from the consistent quality and reliability of a brand new Canon device, the OEM explained.
Developed over two decades of research and refinement, the EQ80 portfolio is designed to enable businesses to actively contribute to a circular economy, while integrating seamlessly into a workspace to fulfil their printing and scanning needs.
According to the UN, over 50 million metric tonnes of e-waste was generated globally in 2019, with per annum levels predicted to reach 120 million tonnes by 2050, if current trends continue.
The EQ80 range fully disassembles the best-selling models collected from the market and rebuilds them using up to 80% reused parts, after thorough testing and cleaning.
Canon sees the range ideal for office settings including public sector, libraries and educational facilities. The new models produce speeds of up to 45 prints and 51 image scans per minute for the EQ80 4200, and 75ppm for the EQ80 6275i.
The addition of uniFLOW Online Express enables cloud access and the ability to track print, scan and copy costs remotely, making it ideal for hybrid working environments now and in the future. With the option to upgrade to uniFLOW Online, users can optimise production workflows from a central cloud-based location and benefit from the flexibility to work from anywhere, anytime.
Additional enhanced security features such as User Authentication, Secure Print and Department ID mean the printers can be used as a standalone device or fit in seamlessly with a mixed fleet, to offer businesses the best of both worlds. The devices also come with the Canon quality guarantee and a warranty for a newly manufactured device.
“At Canon, we have always understood our responsibility for the impact we make on society and the environment. Our corporate philosophy, ‘Kyosei’ – which we define as “all people harmoniously living and working together for the common good,” is etched deeply into our mission, values and the way we conduct our business,” commented Taz Nakamasu, Executive Vice President of B2B Document Solutions, Canon Europe. “Today, with climate change taking an ever-bigger seat on the international agenda, offering quality environmentally-friendly solutions for our customers has never been so important.
“Businesses should not feel the need to choose between sustainability and functionality,” continued Nakamasu. “Keeping your daily work flowing has always been a priority for us, which is why we guarantee that our EQ80 range operates as brand new, with a factory warranty and meeting stringent standards. The fact that the new range adheres to Canon’s ethos of productivity, flexibility and ease of use, means that it can integrate seamlessly with the rest of our product portfolio.
“We understand that sustainability is about more than just a commitment to the environment. It’s also about future-proofing your business. With consumers increasingly demanding services and products from organisations that can demonstrate their social responsibility, it is no surprise that so many businesses are looking to add more environmentally-friendly solutions to their daily operations. We have designed this range with our customers in mind, to ensure that they can maintain productivity and efficient workflows, satisfy consumer demand, and also make a difference to the wider world.”
