ENERGY STAR

®

qualification (select models only)

NOTE:

This section applies only to products bearing the ENERGY STAR logo.

As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Hewlett-Packard Company has followed the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA) enhanced product qualification and certification process to ensure that the

products marked with the ENERGY STAR logo are ENERGY STAR-qualified per the applicable

ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. The following logo appears on all ENERGY STAR-

qualified computers.

The ENERGY STAR Computers Program was created by the EPA to promote energy efficiency and

reduce air pollution through more energy-efficient equipment in homes, offices, and factories. One

way products achieve this energy efficiency is by reducing power consumption when not being used

through the Microsoft Windows Power Management feature.
The Power Management feature enables the computer to enter a low-power (or “sleep”) mode after a

period of inactivity. When used with an external monitor that is ENERGY STAR-qualified, this feature

also supports the similar power management features of the external monitor.
To take advantage of this energy savings, the Power Management feature has been preset to power

down the computer and monitor within the following specified periods of inactivity:

Computer

Monitor/Integrated Display

Within 30 minutes

Within 15 minutes

Both the computer and monitor can be woken from sleep mode through user interaction with any of

the computer input devices (mouse, keyboard, and so on). When configured with Wake On LAN

(WOL) enabled, the computer can also be woken by a network signal.
See the EPA ENERGY STAR Power Management Web site for more information about the energy

and financial savings potential of the Power Management Feature:

CAUTION:

Using the Energy Save Monitor feature with monitors that are not ENERGY STAR-

qualified can cause video distortion when an Energy Save timeout occurs.

NOTE:

ENERGY STAR is not supported on desktop computers, integrated desktop computers,

small-scale servers and workstations configured with some versions of Linux or FreeDOS.
If it is necessary to restore the operating system, you must also reset the ENERGY STAR settings (if

applicable) after the restore.
For Windows 7, to verify the factory default power settings for your desktop or workstation, select

Start > Control Panel, and then type Power Options in the search window.
For Windows 8, to verify the factory default power settings for your desktop or workstation, from the

Start screen, type power, select Settings, and then select Power Options from the list of applications.
