Saving money and the environment

Saving paper and toner

Studies show that as much as 80% of the carbon footprint of a printer is related to paper usage. You can significantly
reduce your carbon footprint by using recycled paper and the following printing suggestions, such as printing on both
sides of the paper and printing multiple pages on one side of a single sheet of paper.

For information on how you can quickly save paper and energy using one printer setting, see

“Using Eco

‑Mode” on

page 80

.

Conserving supplies

Use both sides of the paper

If your printer model supports two

‑sided printing, then you can control whether print appears on one or two sides of

the paper.

Notes:

Two-sided printing is the default setting in the print driver.

For a complete list of supported products and countries, go to

.

Place multiple pages on one sheet of paper

You can print up to 16 consecutive pages of a multiple

‑page document onto one side of a single sheet of paper by

setting multiple page printing (N

‑Up) for the print job.

Check your first draft for accuracy

Before printing or making multiple copies of a document:

Use the preview feature to see how the document looks like before you print it.

Print one copy of the document to check its content and format for accuracy.

Avoid paper jams

Correctly set the paper type and size to avoid paper jams. For more information, see

“Avoiding jams” on page 97
