Think before you print they say; but what if your printer can erase the text and images printed on a paper and allow you to print something over it once more? Would save you quite a lot of paper, wouldn’t it? The concept has been around for sometime now and the revolutionary digital multifunction printer (MFP) was recently introduced to the Sri Lankan consumer by John Keells Office Automation Ltd. (JKOA).
Since its worldwide launch, the Toshiba e-STUDIO 306LP/RD30 has been hailed as the future of the copier industry. The new Toshiba e-STUDIO 306LP/RD30 incorporates green technology with the intention of creating a ‘differentiation in eco-printing’. Toshiba’s award-winning design team incorporated bio-based plastics into the innovative e-STUDIO 306LP/RD30 MFP. Bio-based plastics are raw materials extracted from plants, producing approximately 20% less CO2 during production when compared with petroleum-based plastics.
Commenting on the launch of the groundbreaking Eco MFP system in Sri Lanka, Toshiba Singapore General Manager - Business Solutions Division Minoru Yoshida said: “We are proud to introduce the new Toshiba e-STUDIO 306LP/RD30, which enables you to reuse paper up to five times and reduces CO2 by about 55%. It trims paper usage without limiting your print volume. The new Eco MFP system opens a window to a new work style in the office environment by encouraging users to reuse paper through the new system. All in all, this impressive new Eco MFP system helps companies adopt business strategies in line with their CSR campaigns, pointing the way for a more sustainable future for all.”
He added: “We are most happy to have the market leader, John Keells Office Automation Ltd., which has been our exclusive distributor for 21 years, helping us bring this excellent product to organisations in Sri Lanka.”
A fully owned subsidiary of John Keells Holdings PLC, JKOA has dominated the copier industry in Sri Lanka by consistently making available the latest technology at affordable prices. In partnership with Toshiba, JKOA has responded to current needs by introducing office automation solutions with smart energy efficiency improvements and reduced size and weight. JKOA is the sole authorised distributor for Toshiba digital multifunction photocopiers and is also the Toshiba Mobile Computing Partner for Notebooks.
Speaking at the event JKOA CEO Janoda Thoradeniya said: “As every organisation knows, large volumes of paper usage can be necessary but can also be one of the biggest hindrances to reducing waste. The new Toshiba e-STUDIO 306LP/RD30 helps organizations to adopt business and operational strategies that contribute to sustainable development. The lower ecological footprint of every e-STUDIO 306LP/RD30 MFP enhances an organisation’s reputation as a responsible corporate citizen and contributes to a more sustainable future for all.”
