Environmental Product Stewardship Protecting the Environment Hewlett-Packard Company is committed to providing quality products in an environmentally-sound manner. The printer has been designed to minimize impacts on the environment. The printer design eliminates: Ozone Production The printer uses charging rollers in the electrophotographic process and therefore generates no appreciable ozone gas (0 3 ). CFC Usage Class I U.S. Clean Air Act stratospheric ozone-depleting chemicals (chlorofluorocarbons [CFCs], for example) have been eliminated from the manufacturing of the printer and packaging. The printer design reduces:
Energy Consumption Energy usage drops from 500/505 (110V/220V units) watts (W) during printing to as little as 35/40 (110V/220V units) W while in low-power (Power Save) mode. This saves energy without affecting the high performance of the printer. This product qualifies for the ENERGY STAR Program (U.S. and Japan). ENERGY STAR is a voluntary program established to encourage the development of energy-efficient office products. The ENERGY STAR name is a registered service mark of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. As an ENERGY STAR partner, Hewlett-Packard Company has determined that this product meets ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency.
Toner Consumption EconoMode uses about 50% less toner, thereby extending the life of the toner cartridge. Paper use The printer’s optional duplexing feature, which provides for two- sided printing, reduces paper usage and the resulting demands on natural resources. 36 Chapter 1 Product Information C4085-91087
