Recycling

Design for recycling has been incorporated into this printer:

The number of materials has been kept to a minimum while ensuring proper functionality and reliability.

Dissimilar materials have been designed to separate easily.

Fasteners and other connections are easy to locate, access, and remove using common tools.

High-priority parts have been designed so that they can be accessed quickly for efficient disassembly and repair.

Product packaging

The packaging materials for this printer have been selected to provide maximum protection for the least cost possible, while attempting to minimize environmental impact and facilitate recycling. The rugged design of the printer assists in minimizing both packaging materials and damage rates.

Plastics

Plastic parts over 25 grams are marked according to international standards that enhance the ability to identify plastics for recycling purposes at the end of the product's life.
