1 HP reset its 2005 baseline in 2010 to reflect data from EDS and other acquisitions since 2005. Data for 2008-2010 include EDS and all other acquisitions. Revised calculations for 2006 and 2007 were not performed. 2009 data were revised to correct incomplete reporting in 2009. This correction has been verified by a third party.
2 Efficiency is defined in terms of kWh (using the typical electricity consumption method/pages per minute). These families represent more than 32 percent of inkjet printers and more than 45% of LaserJet printers shipped in 2005.
3 Energy savings calculated by comparing average 2008 HP product ENERGY STAR TEC (typical energy consumption) value to average 2010 HP product ENERGY STAR TEC value multiplied over 2008 volume.
4 As of September 2010. Many Original HP ink cartridges with recycled content include at least 50% recycled plastic by weight. Exact percentage of recycled plastic varies by model over time, based on the availability of the material.
5 Meeting the evolving definition of BFR/PVC-free as set forth in the “iNEMI Position Statement on the ‘Definition of Low-Halogen’ Electronics ‘(BFR/CFR/PVC-Free).’” Plastic parts contain < 1000 ppm (0.1%) of bromine [if the Br source is from BFRs] and < 1000 ppm (0.1%) of chlorine [if the Cl source is from CFRs or PVC or PVC copolymers]. All printed circuit board (PCB) and substrate laminates contain bromine/chlorine total < 1500 ppm (.15%) with a maximum chlorine of 900 ppm (.09%) and maximum bromine being 900 ppm (.09%). Power supply and power cords are not BFR/PVC-free. Service parts after purchase may not be BFR/PVC-free. WWAN is not BFR/PVC-free.
6 HP ENVY100 e-All-in-One is polyvinyl chloride-free (PVC-free); meeting the evolving definition of PVC-free as set forth in the iNEMI Position Statement on the Definition of "Low-Halogen Electronics" (BFR/CFR/PVC-free). Plastic parts contain <1000 ppm (0.1%) of chlorine [if the CI source is from CFRs or PVC or PVC copolymers]. Printers sold in Korea are not PVC-free. USB cable, required in limited geographic areas, is not PVC-free.
8 Segments do not add up exactly to total due to rounding.
9 Recycling totals include all hardware and supplies returned to HP for processing, with ultimate dispositions including recycling, energy recovery, and, where no suitable alternatives exist, responsible disposal. Hardware recycling data from Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and HP LaserJet recycling data are calendar year. The remaining data are based on the HP fiscal year.
10 Some segments do not add up exactly to total due to rounding.
11 Data for 2009 and 2010 include sites gained since the acquisition of EDS in 2008. Data prior to 2009 are HP only.
