Manage power
To conserve electricity and extend the length of time you can use the printer, the
printer comes with the following features:
•
Sleep mode
Power usage is reduced while in Sleep mode. To configure sleep mode settings,
touch Power Meter on the printer's control panel display, touch Settings, touch
Sleep Mode, and then touch the desired option. After the printer has been
inactive for this period of time, the printer will go into a low-power mode.
• Auto-Off
When Auto Power-Off is enabled, the printer will automatically turn off when the
printer has been inactive for the configured period of time. To configure Auto
Power-Off settings, touch Power Meter on the printer's control panel display,
touch Settings, touch Auto-Off, and then touch the desired option.
In addition, try the following:
•
Turn off Bluetooth when not in use. To turn off Bluetooth, touch Bluetooth on the
printer's control panel display, and then touch Turn Off.
• To maximize battery life and capacity, be sure to charge, use, and store the
battery in places that meet the recommended temperature guidelines. For more
information about using the battery, see Install and use the battery.
Optimize printing supplies
To optimize printing supplies such as ink and paper, try the following:
•
Recycle used original HP ink cartridges through HP Planet Partners. For more
information, visit www.hp.com/recycle.
• Optimize paper usage by printing on both sides of the paper. If the printer has an
HP automatic two-sided printing accessory (duplexer), see Print on both sides
(duplexing). Otherwise, you can first print just the odd pages, flip the pages over,
and then print just the even pages.
• Save ink and paper when printing web content with HP Smart Print. For more
information, visit www.hp.com/go/smartprint.
• Change the print mode to a draft setting. The draft setting uses less ink.
• Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. Doing so wastes ink and shortens the
life of the cartridges.
