Preserving the print cartridge
To ensure the longest life from the print cartridge and optimum
performance from the All-In-One:
• Keep a new print cartridge in its packaging until you are ready to
install it.

replace, clean, or store it in an airtight container.
Lexmark’s All-In-One warranty does not cover repair of failures or damage
caused by a refilled cartridge. Lexmark does not recommend the use of
refilled cartridges. Refilling cartridges can affect print quality and cause
damage to the All-In-One. For best results, use Lexmark supplies.
Cleaning the scanner glass

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) compliance information statement
The Lexmark 2300 Series All-In-One (4420-001) has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject
to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this

operation.
The FCC Class B limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
•
•
•
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
•
Consult your point of purchase or service representative for additional suggestions.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or television interference caused by using
other than recommended cables or by unauthorized changes or modifications to this
equipment. Unauthorized changes or modifications could void the user's authority to operate
this equipment.
Note:To assure compliance with FCC regulations on electromagnetic interference for a
Class B computing device, use a properly shielded and grounded cable such as Lexmark
part number 12A2405 for USB attach. Use of a substitute cable not properly shielded and
grounded may result in a violation of FCC regulations.

ENERGY STAR
The EPA ENERGY STAR Office Equipment program is a partnership effort with office
equipment manufacturers to promote the introduction of energy-efficient products and to
reduce air pollution caused by power generation.
Companies participating in this program introduce products that power down when they are not
being used. This feature will cut the energy used by up to 50 percent. Lexmark is proud to be
a participant in this program.
As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Lexmark International, Inc. has determined that this product
meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency.

Printer energy consumption
The following table documents the energy power consumption characteristics of the printer.

outlet, but switch is turned off
4.8 W
The power consumption levels listed in the previous table represent time-averaged
measurements. Instantaneous power draws may be substantially higher than the average.
Power Saver
As part of the ENERGY STAR program, this printer is designed with an energy saving mode
called Power Saver. The Power Saver Mode is equivalent to the EPA Sleep Mode. The Power
Saver Mode saves energy by lowering power consumption during periods of inactivity. The
period of time between the last operation and entering Power Saver is called the Power Saver
Timeout. For this product, the Power Saver Mode is entered after 0 minutes. The Power Saver
Timeout cannot be modified by the user.
Off modes
This printer has an off mode which still consumes a small amount of power. To completely stop
printer power consumption, disconnect the power supply from the wall outlet.
Total energy usage
It is sometimes helpful to calculate the total printer energy usage. Since power consumption
claims are provided in power units of Watts, the power consumption should be multiplied by the
time the printer spends in each mode in order to calculate energy usage. The total printer
energy usage is the sum of each mode's energy usage.
Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) directive
The WEEE logo signifies specific recycling programs and procedures for electronic products
in countries of the European Union. We encourage the recycling of our products. If you have
your local sales office phone number.
