Reblog: The Environmental Costs of Fax
Summary
An average Fortune 500 company may spend millions of dollars per year on paper, toner, energy, and fax hardware. It has been estimated that each year fax machines consume approximately 200 billion pieces of paper (Cox). The average drain of a single business fax machine is 84kWh per year (LG&E), which translates to approximately 59.4kg of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere (US Environmental Protection Agency, 2018). By eliminating the dedicated machine, instead augmenting the MFPs and computers your organization is already using for other tasks, it dramatically reduces the costs of fax.
