Product: HP ENVY 6430e All-in-One Printer

Hi, just got a new HP Envy 6430e and signed up to the Instant Ink.  Loving it so far, however, it is on ALL the time, even sleep mode seems to have lights on.  This is also in a room where someone sleeps and at 5am this morning it started playing a tune and all the lights were flashing.  Is there anyway to control the sleep settings?  This is going to be rarely used and I'd rather it didn't use excessive amounts of electricity if it doesn't need to.

Another thing you may want to check is maintenance scheduling. Up front, I do not know if this model offers this but many allow you to set a schedule for maintenance so it does not turn on in the middle of the night, which your description suggests may have happened.

If you find the information provided useful or solves your problems, help other users find the solution easier by marking my post as an accepted solution. Clicking "yes" on "was this reply helpful" also increases the chances that this solution will help others.

@FerRX thanks for that, whilst it hasn't solved it completely it has made me find settings I didn't know I could control.  Another person has said to look for maintenance management, I can't find that if you happen to know that would be a huge help too!
