environmental statement

Hewlett-Packard continuously improves the design processes of its 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 its 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.
