Sleep Mode
OperationsDefinition
A low-power state the printer enters after a period of inactivity to conserve energy while maintaining readiness to print.
In-Depth Explanation
In sleep mode, the printer reduces power consumption significantly while keeping the printheads capped to prevent drying. The wake-up time from sleep mode is typically 30-60 seconds. Sleep mode settings can be configured through the front panel or HP Smart Device Services. Some organizations configure sleep schedules to align with business hours.
