Thus was born a program that has helped the campus
achieve major environmental and cost savings:
• 35 percent savings in printer paper usage over
previous use volume
• Energy savings of more than 55,000 kilowatt
hours per year 
• Elimination of nearly 56 metric tons of carbon
dioxide from reduced paper and energy use 
• Estimated annual cost savings of more than
$68,000 (excluding printer value)
UC Davis is one of the nation’s top public research
universities and is part of the world’s pre-eminent
public university system. The campus is set in the
Central Valley, close to the state capital and San
Francisco Bay Area.
“We wanted to make sure [old printers] were removed
from the campus, so as part of the program we shrink-
wrap the old printers in bulk and send them back to
HP for recycling.”
Janice King, Director of Materiel Management, University
of California, Davis
Sustainable practices on the campus and throughout
the University of California system, “support
ecological, human, social and economic vitality for
both our campus and the global community.
Sustainable actions meet present needs while
enhancing both the environment and the ability of
future generations to thrive,” according to the UC
Sustainability Policy.
Tech thinking outside the box
Members of one printer rewards program earn points
based on the dollars they spend on qualifying original
ink and toner cartridges as well as recycling those
cartridges. Points can be redeemed for more than 400
of the latest products, such as printers, scanners and
PDAs — all at no additional cost.
UC Davis departments and offices routinely earn
program points through purchases of office supplies.
To make the best use of those points, the campus
arranged to accumulate and hold them centrally. King,
as Director of Materiel Management, could apply them
to the campus’s needs as she saw fit.
So how do rewards program points translate into
paper, energy, and greenhouse gas reductions? The
answer is simple: by using them to replace aging
printers with new, more efficient models.
King worked with HP to craft a printer take-back
program. Offices with printers at least 12 years old —
there were many — were encouraged to bring in their
old printer or printers, and in exchange get a brand
new one. 
“We identified a lot of printers being used on campus
that were no longer good for the environment —
weren’t as energy efficient as new ENERGY STAR®-
qualified printers and didn’t print double-sided — and
arranged to replace them with new printers with better
capabilities,” King explains.
For individual UC Davis users and departments, the
incentive is clear: a free printer with the latest
technology. For the campus, the program provides
continuing cost savings and environmental benefits.
