SMBs should realize that reducing costs and implementing environmental strategies often share the same tactics and outcome, according to Mr. Francois Feuillet, General Manager of Lexmark Middle East

“At Lexmark, we offer solutions that help our customers minimize their environmental impact without compromising productivity," said Mr. Feuillet. "We provide exactly what they need to get the most value from their printing infrastructure, in the context of creating a greener, more efficient working environment.”

Lexmark is committed to helping businesses become greener and reduce their printing costs through a wide range of high-performance, eco-friendly and optimized output solutions. Our environmental programs focus on the design of printing solutions that better serve customers as well as the education of users on printing best practices, such as:

• Use of two-sided and multi-up printing by default, and the sharing of printers
• Preview of documents on screen before printing
• Scan to e-mail or scan to disk when possible instead of copying pages
• Use of only high quality cartridges and free cartridge collection programs
