high standard for the industry.
An Environmentally Responsible Approach to Product Design
The MX-M904/M1054/M1204 Monochrome Document Systems utilize Sharp’s advanced micro-fine

lower operating costs. With two different energy saving modes, power can be reduced or shut off at
set intervals. All Sharp document systems are ENERGY STAR®certified and RoHS compliant to
restrict the use of hazardous substances.
Toner Recycling Program
As part of our commitment to helping preserve the environment, Sharp offers our customers zero
waste land fill recycling for all Sharp consumables, including cartridges, bottles, toner collection
containers and drum units. Sharp encourages customers to recycle their used Sharp toner cartridges
in bulk by providing a pre-paid Recycling Kit for their return to our facility.
Environmental Leadership
As a testament to our commitment to the environment, Sharp is a three-time winner of the ENERGY
STAR®annual Excellence in Energy Proficiency Product Design. Sharp is also a four-time
winner of the SmartWaysm Excellence Award, which recognizes companies for conserving energy
and lowering greenhouse gas emissions in logistics and transportation. Sharp was also a previous
