How to work from home during quarantine and to stay insane

How to work from home during quarantine and to stay insane At first glance, working from home may seem like a paradise: you don’t have to spend time on the way to the office, your favorite  sofa is on your side, there are no traditional disputes about open windows and air conditioners turned on, as well as an employee who distracts the whole open space with his personal conversations on the phone. Here they are - ideal conditions for productive work. But no - it is in these details that those devils are sitting who can destroy the whole working spirit. A few points you should pay attention to so that everything goes as it should in the home office mode. Keep the mundane: It is advisable to keep the usual daily routine. Get up at the same time that you’re used to, despite the fact that you don’t need to get to work now: it’s better to spend free minutes and hours on charging, reading news and a measured breakfast, which you can finally afford.

Eco-friendly indicator

Eco-friendly indicator Part of the new user interface available on GWNX enabled Ricoh multifunction products (MFPs) is an Information screen featuring the Eco friendly indicator.  Displayed on the touch screen operation panel, it summarises the user’s individual usage status—such as duplex printing and paper reduction ratio—and has space for the administrator to configure a message. The administrator can set the time period for providing users with their progress—either weekly, monthly, or a custom period of time. How does it work? When user authentication is enabled, a user’s individual summary is displayed as soon as they log on to the MFP. When user authentication is disabled, the summary provides data on the usage of the MFP rather than of an individual user. Without user authentication, the Information screen is displayed after the MFP has recovered from the Energy Saver Mode, or after an automatic system reset. What information is included? The Information screen

In this guide, we’ll show you how to implement sustainable printing practices within your business. The print industry has been conscientiously pursuing green printing techniques and there has been a real push in recent years to look at more sustainable printing techniques.

ECO Night Sensor

ECO Night Sensor Ricoh’s ECO Night Sensor is an energy saving feature that works by detecting the amount of ambient light in the room. Depending on available settings in a Ricoh device, it automatically turns off the device’s main power, or shifts it to Energy Saver Mode, when the amount of light falls below a certain level. The latest version of ECO Night Sensor also turns the power on when the amount of light increases. The sensor detects the increase and fall of both natural and artificial light, significantly reducing the device’s power consumption and running cost How does it work?  The sensor is located on the operation panel, and its settings can be changed at the operation panel display.
