Import Tips
• Document copying speed and volume ratings to prove it's a dedicated copying machine, not just an accessory printer
• Comply with energy efficiency standards (Energy Star); non-compliant units face additional scrutiny and potential duties
• Break down imported kits (main unit + feeders) properly to avoid set classification issues
