Protecting the environment

HP is committed to providing quality products in an environmentally-sound manner. HP products have been designed with several attributes to minimize impacts on the environment.

This HP LaserJet product eliminates:

Ozone production

The product uses charging rollers in the electrophotographic process and therefore generates no appreciable ozone gas (O3).

This HP LaserJet product design reduces:

Energy consumption

Energy usage drops significantly while in PowerSave mode, which saves natural resources and saves money without affecting the high performance of this product. This product qualifies for ENERGY STAR ® , which is a voluntary program established to encourage the development of energy-efficient office products.

ENERGY STAR® is a U.S. registered service mark of the U.S. EPA. As an ENERGY STAR® partner, Hewlett-Packard Company has determined that this product meets ENERGY STAR® Guidelines for energy efficiency. For more information, see http:/ /www.energystar.gov.

Toner consumption

EconoMode uses significantly less toner, which might extend the life of the toner cartridge.

Paper use

Depending on the type of software program in use, you can request that a number of pages of your document be printed on one sheet of paper. This N-up printing practice and the product’s automatic duplexing feature, which provides two-sided printing, can reduce paper usage and the resulting demands on natural resources.

This HP LaserJet multifunction product also contributes to protecting the environment in the following ways:

Plastics marking for recycling

Plastic parts over 25 grams have markings according to international standards that enhance the ability to identify plastics for recycling purposes at the end of the product’s life.

HP LaserJet printing supplies

In many countries, printing supplies (for example, toner cartridge, drum, and fuser) can be returned to HP through the HP Printing Supplies Returns and Recycling Program. An easy-to-use and free takeback program is available in more than 48 countries. Multilingual program information and instructions are included in every new HP LaserJet toner cartridge and consumables package.

HP printing supplies returns and recycling program information

Since 1990, the HP Printing Supplies Returns and Recycling Program has collected more than 47 million used LaserJet toner cartridges that otherwise might have been discarded in the world’s landfills. Cartridges and consumables are collected and bulk-shipped to HP’s resource and recovery partners who disassemble the
