Should I turn off my printer at the end of each day or leave it in sleep mode?

Do you use other HP services such as HP ePrint, HP Instant ink .... If yes, please leave your printer ON otherwise you can turn it OFF. I actually turn OFF my printers and other equipment everyday, the whole room actually because they "ate" up to 15% of my electrical bills.

 

I left all things ON in my house before and 32% of my bills were for all always ON devices. I started to see which one I can turn off then decided to turn off my computer room overnight. Now only 17% or 18% of my bill is for all always ON devices.

 

Regards.
