Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requires Federal agencies to ensure that theirprocurement of electronic and information technology takes into account the needs of all end-

users, including people with disabilities.Kyocera Mita is currently addressing Section 508 compliance by providing Voluntary Product

Accessibility Templates (VPATs) for all existing products, as well as developing and deployingnew products that comply with Section 508 provisions.Each of our products have been put through a rigorous assessment process, applying the finalrule amending the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR)Section 508 of the Rehabili tation

Act of 1973.We hope that this information is helpful and demonstrates our commitment to meeting theSection 508 requirements for people with disabilities and all other end-users
