IEEE 1680.2a-2017 PDF

This standard defines environmental performance standards for imaging equipment (as defined by the U.S. ENERGY STAR(R) Imaging Equipment Specification1) including copiers, digital duplicators, facsimile machines, multifunction devices, printers, mailing machines, and scanners, relating to reduction or elimination of environmentally sensitive materials, materials selection, design for end of life, life-cycle extension, energy conservation, end-of-life management, corporate performance, packaging, consumables, and indoor air quality.
This standard for imaging equipment is part of the IEEE 1680(TM) family of standards that provides a clear and consistent set of performance criteria for the design of electronic products, and provides an opportunity to secure market recognition for efforts to reduce the environmental impact of electronic products. This imaging equipment standard is intended to provide a tool for government, institutional, corporate, and consumer purchasers. Product manufacturers may use this tool to earn recognition in these markets, recognizing that certain criteria may not be applicable to all types of purchasers.
Amendment Standard – Inactive-Reserved. The following three criteria: “Required—End-of-life processing requirements” (currently 4.6.2.1); “Optional—Manufacturer recyclers or reuses toner material collected through its cartridge and container take-back program” (currently 4.9.3.2); and “Optional—Manufacturer recyclers or reuses plastics collected through its cartridge and container take-back program” (currently 4.9.3.3) are revised in this amendment.(The PDF of this standard is available to you at no cost to you, sponsored by Green Electronics Council, through the IEEE GET Program https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/browse/standards/get-program/page)
