Energy Star
Compliant
Your EPSON Stylus’”
400
printer complies with the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency’s Energy Star program,
which promotes the manufacture of energy-efficient printers,
computers, and monitors.
The EPA estimates that if all desktop computers, printers, and
other peripheral devices met Energy Star standards, energy
cost savings would exceed
$1
billion annually and
carbon
dioxide emissions would be reduced by
20
million tons.
The
Energy Star
emblem

endorsement
