Canon Oceania’s Commitment to Circular Economy Innovation
As part of Canon’s global policy of circulating resources within the same regions where they are consumed, Canon Oceania actively encourages national industry-led product stewardship schemes in Australia and investment in local technology to improve the recovery and reuse of valuable materials from our products. We have been very active industry participants in the development and ongoing implementation and improvement of nationwide schemes.

Better Packaging
Canon has made great strides in our efforts and commitment to phase out expanded polystyrene (EPS) packaging. We have transitioned all our internal protective packaging from expanded polystyrene (EPS) to pulp mould or moulded fibre, which is typically made from recycled paperboard and/or newsprint which can be easily recycled via household collection services.
Canon printer, inks, and paper

Be more efficient with your printer
Use these tips to save paper, power and ink

Utilise duplex printing

Be kinder to the environment and save time, paper and money by printing on both sides of the paper. Many Canon Pixma printers are equipped with Auto Duplex Printing which helps speed up the process.

Keep your Canon printer in an optimal setup

Avoid keeping your printer in dusty environments or placing it in the direct path of an air conditioner draft. This kind of exposure could dry the ink in the print head more quickly.

Print more with XL and XXL sized inks

Save money and lessen cartridge waste with the optional high yield XL and XXL cartridges, which allow you to print more for less. It also means you can print for longer without having to purchase new cartridges.

Consider the cost savings from total cost of ownership

Consider our MegaTank range of continuous ink printers. These printers use large ink bottle refills rather than ink cartridges for more efficient printing which could be a big cost saving in the long-term.

Save ink by using draft mode

If you’re printing for just reference or review, consider using ‘Draft’ mode under the Printer Quality settings to save ink. Just remember to switch back to ‘Standard’ or ‘High’ mode when printing your final copy.
