All functions are reconsidered in pursuit of optimal energy efficiency.
For example, warm-up-time from power off and transit time to
power-saving mode are dramatically shortened, and power
consumption during sleep mode is reduced.
Energy savings for environmental preservation
Low Energy Consumption
Remarkably quiet in sleep as well as printing modes, bizhub
suppresses sounds of fan operation, printing, mechanism and
finisher action, etc. Lower decibel level also extends to reduction of
vibration noise.
Reduced machine operating noise
Quiet Operation
Double-sided colour printing and N-in-1 printing enable you to output
multiple pages in one page, reducing paper consumption. In addition,
Optional PageScope Enterprise Suite software allows usage monitoring
for groups and individuals, usage rate calculation, and automatic graph
creation, and also cuts paper consumption.
Enhanced paper savings and cost control
Two-sided Printing / Centralised Print Administration
Thanks to a smaller engine and a single print head unit, rather than
four as in previous models, new bizhub has a smaller footprint and
consumes less energy. High-precision detail reproduction and image
correction functions allow use of a single polygon motor to cover all
four colours.
Higher-quality image, smaller body
4-colour, One-Beam Laser Unit
Carrier in the black developing unit is supplied as toner is consumed.
This ensures toner freshness for lasting high quality of B&W output.
Higher-quality B&W prints with longer life
Auto-Refining Developing System
Konica Minolta's proprietary Simitri HD toner particles are small and
even in shape, ensuring sharp reproduction of fine text as well as
colour uniformity. Resistance to fading and peeling is optimised for
long-term document storage.
Superior colour uniformity on many types of paper

Even during development, resource savings are top priority. Use of
recycled materials — including conventional polycarbonate and
ABS resin — is encouraged. Consumables are designed to be sorted
for disposal.
Design concern for resource savings
bizhub C360/C280/C220 complies
with International Energy Star
Program’s stringent guidelines for
reduced enegy consumption and
improved efficiency.
Energy Star
bizhub C360/C280/C220 is being evaluated for
certification under Blue Angel guidelines for
eco-efficiency and environmental responsibility.

bizhub re-examines all materials in the
development phase to commercialise
use of non-toxic materials.
Eliminating use of
toxic materials
New bizhub supports a sustainable society with the latest environmental advances
for office and business. Innovative technology reduces energy consumption,
decreases CO
2
emissions, suppresses noise, and enhances use of recycled materials
while achieving significant cost savings.
Environment
Konica Minolta constantly seeks advanced technologies that make the most of
colour MFP technology and meet changing business needs. Accordingly, our
development efforts emphasise higher quality, reliability, usability, longer life
and smaller dimensions.
