Recently Canon debuted the technology for “eco-stapling” which allows users to “staple” up to 5 pages by scoring the sheets and does not utilize any actual staples. This is an example of both Canon’s environmental commitment as well as their innovation.

Toshiba
Toshiba recently developed the world’s first multi-functional device with erasable toner. With a strong commitment to sustainability, Toshiba realized that to be truly impactful in the printing environment there needed to be a way to reduce paper usage. Toshiba was awarded the Bronze Stevie by the American Business Awards for creating the World’s First Multifunction Product with Erasable Toner.
With the release of the eStudio 306LP customers can not only save money on dramatically lower paper costs but can also quantify their sustainability initiative with data on the exact decrease in paper usage.
