# Council Decision of 13 November 2012 on the signing and conclusion of the Agreement between the Government of the United States of America and the European Union on the coordination of energy-efficiency labelling programmes for office equipment (Text with EEA relevance) (2013/107/EU), Division C: Energy-efficiency specifications for qualifying products Only those products listed in section B above that meet the following criteria may qualify as ENERGY STAR. Effective dates are provided in section F. Products Sold with an External Power Supply: To qualify as ENERGY STAR under the present Imaging Equipment Version 1.1 specifications, imaging equipment products manufactured on or after 1 July 2009 using a single-voltage external AC-AC or AC-DC power supply must use an ENERGY STAR-qualified external power supply, or one that meets the ENERGY STAR External Power Supply (EPS) Version 2.0 requirements when tested by the ENERGY STAR test method. The ENERGY STAR specification and test method for single-voltage external AC-AC and AC-DC power supplies may be found at www.energystar.gov/products. Products Designated to Operate with a Type 1 DFE: To qualify as ENERGY STAR under the present Imaging Equipment Version 1.1 specifications, an imaging equipment product manufactured on or after 1 July 2009 that is sold with a Type 1 DFE must use a DFE that meets the ENERGY STAR Imaging Equipment Digital Front End Power Supply Efficiency Requirements listed in section C.3. Products Designated to Operate with a Type 2 DFE: For an imaging equipment product sold with a Type 2 DFE and manufactured on or after 1 July 2009 to qualify as ENERGY STAR under the present Imaging Equipment Version 1.1 specifications, manufacturers should subtract the DFE's energy consumption in Ready mode for TEC products or exclude it when measuring Sleep and Standby for OM products. Section C.1 provides further detail on adjusting TEC values for DFEs for TEC products and section C.2 provides further detail for excluding DFEs from OM Sleep and Standby levels. It is the intent of EPA and the European Commission that, whenever possible, the power associated with the DFE (Type 1 or Type 2) should be excluded or subtracted from the TEC energy and OM power measurements. Products Sold with an Additional Cordless Handset: To qualify, fax machines or MFDs with fax capability manufactured on or after 1 July 2009 that are sold with additional cordless handsets must use an ENERGY STAR-qualified handset, or one that meets the ENERGY STAR Telephony specification when tested to the ENERGY STAR test method on the date the imaging product is qualified as ENERGY STAR. The ENERGY STAR specification and test method for telephony products may be found at www.energystar.gov/products. Duplexing: Standard-size copiers, MFDs, and printers that use EP, SI, and High Performance IJ marking technologies addressed by the TEC approach in section C.1 must meet the following duplexing requirements, based on monochrome product speed: Colour Copiers, MFDs, and Printers Monochrome Product Speed Duplexing Requirement ≤ 19 ipm N/A 20 – 39 ipm Automatic duplexing must be offered as a standard feature or optional accessory at the time of purchase. ≥ 40 ipm Automatic duplexing is required as a standard feature at the time of purchase. Monochrome Copiers, MFDs, and Printers Monochrome Product Speed Duplexing Requirement ≤ 24 ipm N/A 25 – 44 ipm Automatic duplexing must be offered as a standard feature or optional accessory at the time of purchase. ≥ 45 ipm Automatic duplexing is required as a standard feature at the time of purchase. --- Source: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/eudn/2013/107/schedule/ANNEX C/division/III./division/C.
