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. 48

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 on 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 printers 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:
Packaging materials, cushions, accessories and boxes
have been reduced, saving roughly 50% in fuel and, therefore, fuel
emissions.
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.
Printer 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.
Printers:
Hewlett-Packard accepts used and obsolete printers for
component recycling. Call your Hewlett-Packard sales office for
instructions.
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.
