Data stored on the print cartridge and imaging drum

The HP print cartridges and imaging drum used with this product contain a memory chip that assists
in the operation of the product.

In addition, this memory chip collects a limited set of information about the usage of the product,
which might include the following: the date when the print cartridge and imaging drum was first
installed, the date when the print cartridge and imaging drum was last used, the number of pages
printed using the print cartridge and imaging drum, the page coverage, the printing modes used, any
printing errors that might have occurred, and the product model. This information helps HP design
future products to meet our customers' printing needs.

The data collected from the print cartridge and imaging drum memory chip does not contain
information that can be used to identify a customer or user of the print cartridge and imaging drum or
their product.

HP collects a sampling of the memory chips from print cartridges and imaging drums returned to HP's
free return and recycling program (HP Planet Partners:

www.hp.com/recycle

). The memory chips

from this sampling are read and studied in order to improve future HP products. HP partners who
assist in recycling this print cartridge and imaging drum might have access to this data, as well.

Any third party possessing the print cartridge and imaging drum might have access to the anonymous
information on the memory chip. If you prefer to not allow access to this information, you can render
the chip inoperable. However, after you render the memory chip inoperable, the memory chip cannot
be used in an HP product.
