Fujifilm’s Device Technology division has expanded its Apeos portfolio across Europe, leveraging over 90 years of imaging experience and 60 years of toner technology development. The Apeos portfolio includes multifunction printers, single-function printers, and software solutions for printing and document management.
European Expansion
Since introducing Apeos in the UK and Italy in 2024, Fujifilm has expanded availability to France, Spain, Poland, Slovenia, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, with further European launches planned. Fujifilm works with specialist partners that supply equipment and provide local service and support.
Key Features
Fujifilm’s Born Ready approach centers on four areas: Smart, Secure, Sustainable, and Dynamic. These cover the range’s document handling tools, information security controls, energy and resource-saving technologies, and configurations for different workloads and premises. Apeos multifunction printers help staff convert paper documents into digital files, with selected models scanning both sides of a sheet in one pass. Automatic settings straighten pages, correct their orientation, and remove blanks, reducing manual adjustments.

With the appropriate configuration, optical character recognition makes scanned text searchable, allowing staff to locate specific terms within files. Preset scanning instructions let users send documents to agreed destinations without repeatedly entering details.
Sustainability and Security
Fujifilm’s Super EA-Eco toner requires less heat to bond to paper, reducing power consumption. Most Apeos models use this toner, while the recently launched Apeos C3567 and C3061 series use a new ELFEAT toner, further reducing energy needs. Lower energy LED printheads and power-saving functions also help minimize consumption.
Security features protect access to documents, device data, and software. Secure print release holds jobs until authorized users identify themselves at the printer. Administrators can restrict device functions through user permissions, with card authentication available. Encryption safeguards stored information and data transmitted between systems, while software checks detect tampering and prevent unauthorized software execution.
Fujifilm’s Circular Manufacturing Centre in the Netherlands collects used toner cartridges from European customers for remanufacturing, including disassembly, cleaning, and inspection for reuse.

Healthcare Solutions
For UK healthcare organisations, the portfolio offers equipment for patient correspondence, referral documents, staff records, information leaflets, and daily departmental administration. The range includes A3 and A4 devices in color and monochrome. Compact A4 devices suit smaller work areas, while A3 models cater to departments needing larger paper sizes or higher capacity.
Buyers can select printing speeds, paper trays, and scanning functions based on document volume and type. Selected color models reproduce fine text, diagrams, and images for high-quality patient leaflets and training materials. Paper handling options support envelopes and various paper weights, with finishing functions like stapling reducing manual preparation.
Apeos touchscreens let users save frequent settings and personalise the home screen. Similar controls across models help staff move between devices easily. Remote support options on selected models allow technical teams to investigate problems without always attending the site. Features, software, and service arrangements vary by model and provider. Healthcare buyers can discuss these options with a Fujifilm partner, including support and costs for consumables and servicing.
