Hi @Nikola011

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions.

You can leave the Printer ON all the time and it is safe.

You can setup the Energy Saving Mode to put the Printer in Sleep Mode when not in use.

After initial setup of the printer, the printer will enter Sleep mode after 5 minutes of inactivity. To change the time to Sleep mode

1. Open the embedded web server (EWS).

- From the printer control panel, press the Wireless button ( ) and the Information button ( ) together to print the network configuration page.

- Find out the IP address or hostname of the printer from the network configuration page.

- In a supported web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname assigned to the printer. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a web browser: http:// 192.168.0.12.

2. Click the Settings tab.

3. In the Power Management section, click Energy Save Mode, and select the desired options.

4. Click Apply

Also, the HP DeskJet 2600 All-in-One Printer doesn't have automatic cleaning. You need to use the HP Assistant Software to clean the cartridges once a Week if you do not use the Printer often.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Thank you. 🙂
