Environmental responsibility
Minimize your impact on
the environment.
As one of the world’s largest consumer IT companies, a leading IT supplier to small and medium-size businesses,
and a leader in enterprise computing, HP’s largest impact on the environment is through its products. The
environmental performance of products is largely determined at the design stage. HP’s Design for the
Environment initiative is driving improvements at every stage in the product lifecycle—helping reduce the
amount of energy, paper, packaging, and materials used at HP and by our customers. Through intelligent
design, we can reduce the environmental impact of our products, and of our customers.
Reduce costs
Reduce the cost of power, waste, and asset disposal with energy-efficient HP solutions.
• Save power automatically with energy intelligence that’s built into HP printing products.
Instant-on Technology in HP LaserJet devices provides up to 50 percent energy savings over
traditional fusing while providing a first-page-out in seconds. Instant-on Technology has
reduced emissions by 5.25 million tons of CO
2
to date—the equivalent of removing 1.1
million cars from the road for one year.

HP Color LaserJet CP1215 Printer meets E
NERGY STAR guidelines for energy eff
he
iciency.
• Simplify the management and disposal of products, and recover some of their value at end
of use. Through HP Planet Partners

—a free, convenient return and recycling program
available in more than 40 countries—you can be assured cartridges won’t end up in a
landfill. All returned Original HP print cartridges go through a multiphase recycling
process where they are reduced to raw materials that are used to make new metal and
plastic products.
Save resources
Easily recycle materials, save paper and use fewer resources across the entire
lifecycle of the printer.
• As shown at right, Smart Web print improves printing from Web pages.
Eliminate extra pages and right-edge clipping and enjoy the ability to
combine content and print exactly what you want, without wasting
resources.
• Consume less paper by printing on both sides with manual two-sided
printing. Plus, you can easily produce 2-up and 4-up copies (multiple
pages on a single sheet of paper) to conserve resources.
