Mita's advanced copier technology saw the brand used in many areas of Australian Government and business. Kyocera and Mita merge Kyocera acquired the global copier manufacturer Mita Corporation early in 2000. The international integration of business operations commenced with the merger of the two companies in Australia in October 2000. The integration of the Australian division of the company, now known as Kyocera Mita Australia, was the first phase of a global restructure, which has accelerated the convergence of networked document management systems. Kyocera Mita is now poised to consolidate its position as a world leader in document imaging technology in networked environments. Kyocera - A Technological and Environmental Pacesetter ECOSYS (Economy, Ecology and Systems) Technology Kyocera pioneered cartridge free printing that reduces both the cost of consumables and waste. Industry and product surveys consistently show that Kyocera printers are up to 70% cheaper to operate than comparative models. The company's award-winning ECOSYS laser printers have the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and cost per page available on the market. Through savings on consumables alone, most consumers can recover the original capital cost of the printer in the first year of printing.
