Example: Consider a standard-size IJ printer with a USB 2.0 connection and a memory card connection. Assuming the USB connection is the primary interface used during the test, the printer model would receive a functional-adder allowance of 0,5 W for USB and 0,1 for the memory card reader, for a total of 0,6 W in functional-adder allowances. Since OM Table 2 sets a sleep mode marking-engine limit of 1,4 W, to determine qualification under ENERGY STAR, the manufacturer would add together the sleep mode marking-engine limit and the applicable functional-adder allowances to determine the maximum power consumption permitted for qualification of the base product: 1,4 W + 0,6 W. If the power consumption of the printer in sleep mode is measured at or below 2,0 W, then the printer would meet the ENERGY STAR sleep limit.
