Survey of energy and power usage in copiers, duplicators, and electronic reprographic devices

摘要

This report investigates power demand and energy consumption of copiers, duplicators, and electronic reprographic devices that are widely used in the office place. Data are presented on power, energy per copy, and energy consumption trends over a 15 year period. The dependence on machine speed and duty cycle is also examined, and the effect of emerging digital and color technologies on energy and power usage is briefly considered.
