RoHS Compliance	Hewlett-Packard is committed to compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations,
	including the European Union Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive. HP's goal is to
	exceed compliance obligations by meeting the requirements of the RoHS Directive on a worldwide basis.
	By July 1, 2006, RoHS substances will be virtually eliminated (virtually = to levels below legal limits) for
	all HP electronic products subject to the RoHS Directive, except where it is widely recognized that there is
	no technically feasible alternative (as indicated by an exemption under the EU RoHS Directive).
Material Usage	This product does not contain any of the following substances in excess of regulatory limits (refer to the
	HP General Specification for the
	Environment at http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/globalcitizenship/environment/
	supplychain/gen_specifications.html):
	Asbestos
	Certain Azo Colorants
	Certain Brominated Flame Retardants – may not be used as flame retardants in plastics

	Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) – except for wires and cables, and certain retail packaging has been
	voluntarily removed from most applications.
	Radioactive Substances
	Tributyl Tin (TBT), Triphenyl Tin (TPT), Tributyl Tin Oxide (TBTO)
Packaging	HP follows these guidelines to decrease the environmental impact of product packaging:

Eliminate the use of heavy metals such as lead, chromium, mercury and cadmium in packaging materials.

Eliminate the use of ozone-depleting substances (ODS) in packaging materials. Design packaging materials for ease of disassembly.

Maximize the use of post-consumer recycled content materials in packaging materials. Use readily recyclable packaging materials such as paper and corrugated materials.
