Energy
DEX consolidates redundant devices, configures sleep and power-down settings, and selects energy-efficient equipment, so the fleet draws less power across the day.
Sustainability
Print Less. Print Cleaner.
Print has an environmental footprint most companies never measure: the paper they overprint, the energy idle devices draw, and the cartridges and hardware they send to landfill. A managed print program is also a sustainability program, because the same waste that costs money costs resources. DEX reduces both at once, and gives RFP teams the documentation they need to score it. Three pillars of cleaner print Paper. DEX defaults the fleet to duplex, sets rules that hold or route low-value print, and right-sizes devices so people stop printing pages they never collect. Less waste at the tray means less paper bought and discarded.

Consumables
DEX manages toner so cartridges are ordered to actual need, not stockpiled, and routes spent cartridges and parts into recycling rather than the trash. Recycling and take-back DEX participates in manufacturer take-back and recycling programs for toner cartridges and end-of-life equipment across the OEM lines it carries, including Konica Minolta, Kyocera, Canon, Ricoh, HP, and Sharp.
Sustainability
Spent consumables and retired devices route back to the manufacturer recovery stream instead of landfill. Documentation for RFPs and ESG reporting Sustainability is increasingly a scored line item in RFPs and a tracked metric in ESG reporting. DEX builds the program around your fleet and reports the inputs you need: device consolidation, duplex adoption, and consumable recycling. DEX reports your real numbers from the program; it does not publish invented carbon or savings figures.

Common questions.
What is sustainable printing?
Sustainable printing is the practice of reducing the paper, energy, and consumable waste a print fleet creates, through right-sizing, default duplex, energy controls, and recycling.
How does DEX reduce paper use?
DEX defaults the fleet to duplex, sets rules that hold or route low-value print, and right-sizes devices so people stop printing pages they never collect.
Does DEX recycle toner and old printers?
Yes. DEX routes spent toner cartridges and end-of-life devices into manufacturer take-back and recycling programs rather than landfill.
Can DEX help with our ESG or RFP sustainability requirements?
Yes. DEX reports device consolidation, duplex adoption, and consumable recycling from your real program data so you can document the program for procurement or ESG reporting.
Does sustainable printing cost more?
No. The waste that harms the environment also costs money; reducing paper, energy, and consumables typically lowers spend while lowering footprint.
What is an impact report?
It is a baseline DEX assembles from your fleet showing the program's sustainability inputs, which you can bring to procurement or a sustainability team.
