EconoMode | HP P2030 guide

EconoMode

This product has an EconoMode option for printing drafts of documents. Using EconoMode can use less toner and decrease the cost per page. However, using EconoMode can also reduce print quality.

HP does not recommend full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the print cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade under these circumstances, you will need to install a new print cartridge, even if there is toner supply remaining in the cartridge.

Enable or disable EconoMode in any of these ways:

●In the embedded Web server (network model only), open the Settings tab and select the PCL Settings option.

●In the Windows printer driver, open the Paper/Quality tab and select the EconoMode option.

●In the Macintosh printer driver, open the Print Quality drop-down menu.
