Environmental Attributes of the DeskJet Printer

Environmental Statement

Hewlett-Packard continuously improves the design and production processes of HP DeskJet printers to minimize the negative impact of the office environment and on the communities where printers are manufactured, shipped, and used. Hewlett-Packard has also developed processes to minimize the negative impact of the disposal of the printer at the end of printing life.

Reduction and Elimination

Ozone: All ozone-depleting chemicals (CFC, for example) have been eliminated from Hewlett-Packard manufacturing processes. Number of Parts: Early in design, the total number of parts used by the printer is reduced when possible to minimize costs during manufacturing and to reduce handling at end-of-life.

Printer Packaging: The packaging materials for this printer have been selected to provide maximum protection for the least cost possible, while attempting to minimize environmental impact and facilitate recycling. The rugged design of the HP DeskJet printer assists in minimizing both packaging materials and damage rates.

Recycling

Design for recycling has been incorporated into this printer. The number of materials has been kept to a minimum, and dissimilar materials have been designed to separate easily. Fasteners and connectors are easy to locate, access, and remove using common tools. High priority parts have been designed to be accessed quickly for efficient disassembly and repair. Plastics parts have been primarily designed in no more than two colors to enhance recycling options.

Plastic Materials: All major manufactured plastics parts are marked as to the plastic content to facilitate product recycling.

Printers and Print Cartridges: In certain countries, Hewlett-Packard is conducting pilot programs to take back printers and print cartridges for material reclamation and environmentally sound disposal. Call your Hewlett-Packard representative for current status. Paper: This printer is designed to facilitate the use of recycled paper as consumer media. Depending on the availability of recycled paper in each country, all manuals are printed on recycled paper.

Energy Conservation

This printer was designed with energy conservation in mind. This printer uses less than 5 watts in stand-by mode. As an ENERGY STAR partner, Hewlett-Packard has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency.

Off-mode Energy Consumption: When the printer is in off-mode, a minimal amount of energy is still being consumed. Turning off the printer and then disconnecting the printer power cord from the electrical source can prevent energy consumption.
