M601, M602 and M603 HP Eco‐Smart LaserJet printers feature Auto‐Off/Auto‐On technology that dramatically reduces their power consumption. Auto‐Off/Auto‐On disables non‐ essential background functions to reduce power consumption to less than one watt when the printer is idle. The M500 and M600 series - HP LaserJet Enterprise 600 | HP LaserJet Enterprise M500 and M600 Printer Series - Page 4
circuitry is entirely powered down. The M500 and M600 printers cannot, therefore, automatically awake from Auto‐Off for HP's ePrint technology for emailing print jobs directly to the printer relies upon active interaction between the printer and the ePrint servers in the Internet. When the printer - HP LaserJet Enterprise 600 | HP LaserJet Enterprise M500 and M600 Printer Series - Page 5
will go into Off and can only be returned to service by pressing the Power button. When the power button is pressed, the printer will perform a full boot up. For these settings, the printer will enter the specified power saving mode after a period of inactivity, as specified by the Sleep/Auto - HP LaserJet Enterprise 600 | HP LaserJet Enterprise M500 and M600 Printer Series - Page 6

SNMP SNMP, or Simple Network Management Protocol is a versatile and ubiquitous protocol used for managing network devices.

Bonjour The Bonjour protocol is a decentralized services‐discovery protocol used broadly, particularly by systems developed by Apple Computer (e.g. AirPrint) and as a discovery mechanism in HP's Universal Printer Driver.

Installation and SNMP There are three common ways that Windows clients connect to printers, HP's Universal Printer Driver (UPD), the HP Standard TCP/IP Port or the (Microsoft) Standard TCP/IP Port.

UPD, SNMP is optional for the operation of the print drivers. When installing a driver using the HP Standard TCP/IP Port or the Standard TCP/IP Port while SNMP is disabled, the installation process will first fail to detect the printer type and give the following warning: Selecting "Hewlett Packard - HP LaserJet Enterprise 600 | HP LaserJet Enterprise M500 and M600 Printer Series - Page 10

The M500 and M600 printers are EEE‐enabled allowing them to achieve considerable energy savings - HP LaserJet Enterprise 600 | HP LaserJet Enterprise M500 and M600 Printer Series - Page 12
Most applications are intrinsically tolerant of this delay and loss, using retransmissions or retries to operate robustly. However, custom applications may not expect this behavior and may need some modifications. 12

Maximizing energy conservation in HP
LaserJet M500 and M600 series printers
October 5, 2011
Quickset: SMB – Small and Medium businesses with minimal central
management
The following steps, applied to an M500 or M600 series printer (via the Embedded Web Server) that is
in factory default configuration, will set it up for minimal energy usage in a home, small or medium
business environment where centralized remote management is not in use:
1)
Energy Setting: Enable Sleep/Auto Off Time
2)
Energy Settings: Sleep/Auto Off after: 5 (minutes)
3)
Energy Settings: Wake/Auto On Events: Network Port
4)
Network Tab/Network Settings: Disable SNMPv1/v2*
5)
Network Tab/Other Settings, uncheck:
a.
SLP Config
b.
Bonjour *
c.
WS Discovery
d.
Web Services Print*
6)
Shut down clients at night
*Disabling these protocols will impact some printer features such as UPD, AirPrint and Win 7 status.
Quickset: Enterprise – Centrally managed printers
In a large business environment in which centralized remote management is a key facet of printer
maintenance, the following settings are recommended to provide minimal energy consumption without
loss of control:
1)
Energy Setting: Enable Sleep/Auto Off Time
2)
Energy Settings: Sleep/Auto Off after: 5 (minutes)
3)
Energy Settings: Wake/Auto On Events: Network Port
4)
Network Tab/Other Settings, uncheck:
a.
SLP Config
b.
Bonjour
c.
WS Discovery
5)
Tune management systems (WJA, RMA) to minimize SNMP and align with working hours. (See
notes below)
6)
Disconnect clients from the Embedded Web Server.
