Introduction

The printer includes several economy features to conserve energy and supplies.

Print with EconoMode

This printer has an EconoMode option for printing drafts of documents. Using EconoMode can use less toner. However, using EconoMode can also reduce print quality.

HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is no longer acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge.

NOTE: If this option is not available in your print driver, you can set it using the HP Embedded Web Server.

1.From the software program, select the Print option.

2.Select the printer, and then click the Properties or Preferences button.

3.Click the Paper/Quality tab.

4.Click the EconoMode check box.
