Energy Consumption

DC checks energy consumption assuming the following conditions:

AIOs are running 24 hours a day
100 pages of text and graphics are printed per day
These pages are printed in one job

If several smaller jobs have to be printed, Samsungs result would be even worse, since the fuser unit has to be heated up for every single job.
