The London Development Agency (LDA) is to upgrade its print fleet using Canon printers to reduce its print costs and environmental impact through lower energy consumption and smarter printing.
The organisation expects the new printers to help trim costs by £25,000 a year, marking a 30 per cent saving on its previous printer fleet.
The LDA is a public sector organisation that works with London mayor Boris Johnson to provide a strategy for sustainable working practices.
Canon will install eight Image Runner Advance C5051 colour devices, which the company claims offers up to a 40 per cent reduction in energy consumption compared with previous devices.
The LDA will also install eight monochrome Canon iR5065 devices at the LDA headquarters in Southwark. These will help manage internal communications. The new fleet will replace the LDA’s current network printers.
"The main benefits for the LDA are financial, but we were also looking for printers that could generate high-volume and high-quality printing for our 400-strong team,” Karl Liparoti, LDA’s head of IMT service delivery, told Computing.
