Energy Star Compliance

As an Energy Star Partner, EPSON has determined that this product

meets the Energy Star guidelines for energy efficiency.

The EPA estimates that if all desktop computers, printers, and other

peripheral devices met Energy Star standards, energy cost savings would

exceed $1 billion annually and carbon dioxide emissions would be

reduced by 20 million tons.

All of EPSON’s ink jet printers conform to Energy Star standards.

Note:

The Energy Star emblem does not represent EPA endorsement

any product or

service.

Energy-saving Tips

Here are a few tips you can use to be even more energy-wise:

If your monitor isn’t Energy Star compliant, turn it off when you’re

not using it.

Turn off your computer, printer, and monitor each day when you are

done using them.

Use the print preview option in your software to catch errors before

you print a document.

If you have an electronic mail system available to you, send E-mail

rather than memos. Not only is this faster, but you’ll save paper and

storage space too.
