Energy consumption

This printer was designed with energy conservation in mind. Not only does this save natural resources, but it also saves money without affecting the high performance of the printer. The printer meets the Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) requirements, the US government energy savings initiative aimed at reducing power when the printer is turned OFF.

Energy consumption in standby mode: See the reference guide for energy consumption specifications.

Energy consumption in off-mode:When the printer is off, an amount of energy is still being consumed. Energy consumption can be prevented by turning the printer power off, then disconnecting the end of the printer power cord from the electrical source.

Print cartridge recovery

Customers interested in recycling their genuine HP print cartridges can participate in HP’s Planet Partner’s Program for inkjet cartridges. HP offers this program in more countries/regions than any other inkjet cartridge manufacturer in the world. This program is provided as a free service to HP customers as an environmentally sound solution for these products at end-of-life.

To participate, simply follow the directions provided on HP’s Web site at this address: www.hp.com/recycle. This service is not available in all countries/regions. Customers may be asked for their name, phone number, and address.

Because HP’s unique recycling processes are very sensitive to material contamination, we cannot take back and recycle cartridges from other manufacturers. The end products of the recycling process are used in the manufacture of new products, and HP must ensure the composition of the material is consistent. To do that, we recycle only HP original cartridges. This program does not extend to refilled cartridges.

Returned cartridges are separated for purification into raw materials for use in other industries to manufacture new products. Examples of products made from recycled HP print cartridge materials include automobile parts, trays used in microchip
