More About Your Printer: Environmental Statement
Environmental Statement
Hewlett-Packard continuously improves the design 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 printer at the end of printing life.
Reduction and Elimination
Paper Use: The printer’s automatic/manual two-sided printing capability reduces
paper usage and the resulting demands on natural resources. This printer is
suited for the use of recycled papers according to DIN 19 309.
Ozone : Ozone-depleting chemicals such as CFCs have been eliminated from
Hewlett-Packard manufacturing processes.
Recycling
Design for recycling has been incorporated into this printer. The number of
materials has been kept to a minimum while ensuring proper functionality and
reliability. Dissimilar materials have been designed to separate easily. Fasteners
and other connections are easy to locate, access, and remove using common
tools. High priority parts have been designed to access quickly for efficient
disassembly and repair. Plastic parts have been primarily designed in no more
than two colors to enhance recycling options. A few small parts are colored
specifically to highlight customer access points.
Printer Packaging: The packaging materials for this printer have been selected to
provide maximum protection for the least cost possible, while attempting to
minimize environmental impact and facilitate recycling. The rugged design of the
HP DeskJet printer assists in minimizing both packaging materials and damage
rates.
Plastic parts: All major plastics and plastic parts are marked according to
international standards. All plastic parts used in the printer housing and chassis
are technically recyclable and all use a single polymer.
