Noise emission levels The following measurements were made in accordance with ISO 7779 and reported in conformance with ISO 9296. 1-meter average sound pressure, dBA Printing Idling ENERGY STAR 44 dBA Silent The EPA ENERGY STAR Office Equipment program is a partnership effort with office equipment manufacturers to promote the introduction of energy-efficient products and to reduce air pollution caused by power generation. Companies participating in this program introduce products that power down when they are not being used. This feature will cut the energy used by up to 50 percent. Lexmark is proud to be a participant in this program. As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Lexmark International, Inc. has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. 49 Printer energy consumption The following table documents the energy consumption characteristics of the printer. Mode Printing Power Saver Off Description Printer is generating hard copy output Printer is in energy saving mode Printer is plugged into a wall outlet, but switch is turned off Power consumption 10 W 7W 5.5 W The power consumption levels listed in the previous table represent time-averaged measurements. Instantaneous power draws may be substantially higher than the average. Power Saver As part of the ENERGY STAR program, this printer is designed with an energy-saving mode called Power Saver. The Power Saver Mode is equivalent to the EPA Sleep Mode. The Power Saver Mode saves energy by lowering power consumption during periods of inactivity. For this printer, the Power Saver Mode is entered immediately at the end of a print job. The Power Saver Mode does not affect the performance of this product and therefore cannot be modified by the user. Off modes This printer has an off mode which still consumes a small amount of power. To completely stop printer power consumption, disconnect the power supply from the wall outlet. Total energy usage It is sometimes helpful to calculate the total printer energy usage. Since power consumption claims are provided in power units of Watts, the power consumption should be multiplied by the time the printer spends in each mode in order to calculate energy usage. The total printer energy usage is the sum of each mode's energy usage. Mercury statement This product contains mercury in the lamp (<5mg Hg). Disposal of mercury may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance: www.eiae.org.
