Lexmark announces CarbonNeutral® Certified Printers and Lexmark OnePrint Subscription Service

Global imaging and IoT solutions business Lexmark has announced new offerings that enable small- and medium-sized businesses to print more simply and sustainably. Certified CarbonNeutral single- and multi-function laser printers are now available in the Lexmark GO Line of smaller footprint devices, while Lexmark OnePrint offers access to a simplified print subscription service. “Lexmark is pleased to bring these simple and sustainable print solutions to small- and medium- sized businesses,” said Brock Saladin, Lexmark senior vice president and chief commercial officer. “As an established leader in enterprise print, Lexmark is utilizing our cloud and IoT technology expertise to simplify print for smaller businesses while delivering enterprise-class capabilities and value.” Two flagship devices in the Lexmark GO Line series are now CarbonNeutral certified products. All Lexmark single-function black and white B3442dw devices and multi-function colour MC3326i devices sold after 27 September are certified as CarbonNeutral products by Climate Impact Partners. These devices provide certified carbon neutrality by default, right out of the box and with no additional fee. “These CarbonNeutral certified single-function and multi-function laser devices allow small- and medium- sized business customers to be more sustainable in their printing, without additional cost or sacrifice,”

Saladin said. “This is a significant milestone in Lexmark’s ongoing journey towards more sustainable products and is part of our longstanding commitment to helping protect the environment.” Carbon neutrality for these products begins with Lexmark engineers working to measure and minimise the greenhouse gas emissions in the full lifecycle of the product’s production, transportation, use and retirement. Lexmark then supports third party-verified climate projects to offset any remaining carbon emissions. Climate Impact Partners’ CarbonNeutral® certification is the global standard, managed for over 20 years to deliver clear, conclusive and transparent carbon neutral claims. Lexmark GO Line products, including the new CarbonNeutral Certified models, are available at Lexmark.com and other ecommerce sites, as well as through select Lexmark partners. Lexmark OnePrint is a simple subscription print solution that helps small- and medium-sized businesses save time and money. Customers select the monthly plan that matches the number of pages they expect to print each month. Leveraging Lexmark’s proprietary AI-driven supplies replenishment system, enrolled Lexmark GO Line devices are automatically monitored and managed, and genuine Lexmark toner is shipped just when it is needed, eliminating the risk of running out of toner. Service and support are also simple, with Lexmark guarantee service.
