Environmental
Statement
Hewlett-Packard continuously improves the design
processes of HP 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 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.
Plastic parts : All major plastics and plastic parts are
marked according to international standards. All plastic
parts used in the printer housing and chassis are
technically recyclable and all use a single polymer.
