HP LaserJet Enterprise, HP PageWide Enterprise - Configure Energy-conservation settings

Learn how to configure the printer energy-conservation settings to balance the needs for speed and energy use.

Print with EconoMode (mono models only)

Some printers have an EconoMode option for printing drafts of documents. Using EconoMode can use less toner. However, using EconoMode can also reduce print quality.

HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is no longer acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge.

Note:

If this option is not available in your print driver, you can set it using the printer control panel.

Configure EconoMode from the print driver

Use the following steps to configure EconoMode from the print driver.

From the software program, select the Print option.
Select the printer, and then click the Properties or Preferences button.
Click the Paper/Quality tab.
Click the EconoMode check box to enable the feature, and then click OK.

Note:

HP does not recommend using deep sleep settings if you have Security Solutions installed. In some situations, the printer does not wake from deep sleep. For additional information, contact your HP representative.
