Operational mode (OM) approach — A method of testing and comparing the energy performance of imaging equipment products which focuses on product energy consumption in various low-power modes. The key criteria used by the OM approach are values for low-power modes, measured in watts (W). Detailed information can be found in the ‘ENERGY STAR Qualified Imaging Equipment Operational Mode Test Procedure’ available at www.energystar.gov/products.
