Hewlett-Packard announced a series of environmental goals it hopes to achieve over the next few years. The company's new “Eco Solutions” program will touch on all aspects of the company’s business, from consumer to commercial products. Starting with four new printers, HP will display an “Eco Highlights” label on its product packaging that provides the environmental attributes of the product.

The company also set out a series of environmental benchmarks it hopes to achieve over the next several years, including improving the energy efficiency of its ink and laser printers by 40% by 2011; a three-fold increase in the use of recycled materials in its printers by 2010; and the recovery of 2 billion lb. of computing and printer equipment by 2010.
