Environmental Information Providing Environmental Solutions and Reducing Cost
The following information has been developed to assist users and has been issued in relation to the
European Union (EU) Energy Related Products Directive, specifically the Lot 4 study on Imaging
Equipment. This requires manufacturers to improve environmental performance of in scope products
and supports the EU action plan on energy efficiency.
In scope products are Household and Office equipment that meet the following criteria:
• Standard monochrome format products with a maximum speed less than 66 A4 images per
minute
• Standard color format products with a maximum speed less than 51 A4 images per minute
ENERGY STAR
The ENERGY STAR program is a voluntary scheme to promote the development
and purchase of energy-efficient models, which help to reduce environmental
impact. Details on the ENERGY STAR program and models qualified to ENERGY
STAR can be found at the following website:
The ENERGY STAR and ENERGY STAR mark are registered United States
trademarks.
The ENERGY STAR Imaging Equipment Program is a team effort between United
States, European Union, Japanese governments, and the office equipment in-
dustry to promote energy-efficient copiers, printers, fax, multifunction printers,
personal computers, and monitors. Reducing product energy consumption helps
combat smog, acid rain, and long-term changes to the climate by decreasing the
emissions that result from generating electricity.

Power Consumption and Activation Time
The amount of electricity that a device consumes depends on the way the device is used. This device
is designed and configured to enable you to reduce your electricity usage.
Power Saver modes are enabled on your device to reduce energy consumption. After the last print,
the device transitions to Ready mode. In this mode, the device can print again immediately. If the de-
vice is not used for a specified period, the device transitions to Low Power mode, then to Sleep mode.
In these modes, to enable reduced-power consumption, only essential functions remain active. The
device takes longer to produce the first print after it exits the Power Saver modes than it takes to print
in Ready mode. This delay is the result of the system waking up and is typical of most imaging devices
on the market.
To save power, you can enable Auto Power Off mode on your device. If Auto Power Off mode is en-
abled, you can configure the mode as follows:
