ENERGY STAR® – Office Equipment
Most office equipment sold today has the ability to switch into "sleep" or low-power mode if it is not being used. The energy savings can be significant, especially for large organizations. To qualify for the ENERGY STAR® symbol, all office equipment must meet the guidelines below and be shipped from the factory with the power-management capabilities fully activated. It is recommended, however, that the user verify that the power-management features are enabled.
To meet the criteria for ENERGY STAR, each product should automatically switch into a "sleep" or low-power mode before the maximum period of inactivity allowed.
