LCD Quality Standards and Pixel Policy
LCD Quality Standards and Pixel Policy
HP uses selected high quality panels for the manufacture of its LCD
monitors. Nevertheless, the display may have a few cosmetic
imperfections that appear as small dark or bright spots. This is not
specific to HP but linked to the current state of the art of LCD
manufacturing.
In fact, an LCD screen is made of millions of small "sub-pixels" that
are each turned on or off by a transistor and it is extremely difficult to
manufacture millions of perfect transistors on a large surface.
Therefore, no manufacturer can currently guarantee 100% defectfree panels at a reasonable price.
How visible a defect is depends on its nature and location.
Each pixel is made up of one red, one green and one blue sub-pixel.
• A defect in a sub-pixel is not very visible, and can often only be
perceived against specific backgrounds.
• Adjacent sub-pixel defects are more visible than "geographically
dispersed" defects.
• A full-pixel defect (all three R/G/B sub-pixels always on or always
off) is quite visible.
HP does not accept any full-pixel defects upon shipment. The vast
majority of HP monitors do not have visible imperfections. On the
other hand, HP is obliged - for the reasons outlined before - to accept
the possibility of a few sub-pixel defects.
HP has established clear standards for the maximum number of
imperfections per panel that can be tolerated. Your display has been
checked to comply with these standards.
If you are interested in the technicalities you can find the details of
HP's pixel policy below.
Details of HP’s Pixel Policy
To identify defective pixels, the monitor shall be viewed under
normal operating conditions, preferably in its native resolution, and
from a normal viewing distance of at least 50 cm (16 in.)
22
hp L1815 LCD Monitor
LCD Quality Standards and Pixel Policy
Under these conditions the HP L1815 monitor shall not show more
than (whichever of the following limits is reached first):
• a total of 6 sub-pixel defects (of whatever nature) or
• 4 defective red sub-pixels or
• 4 defective green sub-pixels or
• 4 defective blue sub-pixels or
• 1 pixel with two adjacent sub-pixel defects within a radius of 2.5
mm or
• 2 pixels located more than 2.5 mm from each other and that each
have two adjacent defective sub-pixels.

TCO '99
Congratulations! You have just purchased a TCO’95 or TCO'99 approved
and labelled product! Your choice has provided you with a product
developed for professional use. Your purchase has also contributed to
reducing the burden on the environment and also to the further development
of environmentally adapted electronics products.
This product meets the requirements for the TCO’95 or TCO'99 scheme
which provides for an international environmental and quality labelling of
personal computers. The labelling scheme was developed as a joint effort by
the TCO (The Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), Svenska
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation),
Statens Energimyndighet (The Swedish National Energy Administration) and
SEMKO AB.
The requirements cover a wide range of issues: environment, ergonomics,
usability, reduction of electric and magnetic fields, energy consumption and
electrical safety.
Why do we have environmentally labeled computers?
In many countries, environmental labelling has become an established
method for encouraging the adaptation of goods and services to the
environment. The main problem, as far as computers and other electronics
equipment are concerned, is that environmentally harmful substances are
used both in the products and during their manufacture. Since it is not so far
possible to satisfactorily recycle the majority of electronics equipment, most
of these potentially damaging substances sooner or later enter nature.
There are also other characteristics of a computer, such as energy
consumption levels, that are important from the viewpoints of both the work
(internal) and natural (external) environments. Since all methods of electricity
generation have a negative effect on the environment (e.g. acidic and
climate-influencing emissions, radioactive waste), it is vital to save energy.
Electronics equipment in offices is often left running continuously and thereby
consumes a lot of energy.
What does the environmental labeling involve?
The environmental demands has been developed by Svenska
Naturskyddsforeningen (The Swedish Society for Nature Conservation).
These demands impose restrictions on the presence and use of heavy metals,
brominated and chlorinated flame retardants, CFCs (freons) and chlorinated
solvents, among other things. The product must be prepared for recycling
and the manufacturer is obliged to have an environmental policy which must
be adhered to in each country where the company implements its
operational policy.
29
hp L1815 LCD Monitor
Regulatory Information
The energy requirements include a demand that the computer and/or
display, after a certain period of inactivity, shall reduce its power
consumption to a lower level in one or more stages. The length of time to
reactivate the computer shall be reasonable for the user.
Below you will find a brief summary of the environmental requirements met
by this product. The complete environmental criteria document may be
ordered from:
TCO Development

Environmental requirements
Flame retardants:
Flame retardants are present in printed circuit boards, cables, wires, casings
and housings. Their purpose is to prevent, or at least to delay the spread of
fire. Up to 30% of the plastic in a computer casing can consist of flame
retardant substances. Most flame retardants contain bromine or chloride,
and those flame retardants are chemically related to another group of
environmental toxins, PCBs. Both the flame retardants containing bromine or
chloride and the PCBs are suspected of giving rise to severe health effects,
including reproductive damage in fish-eating birds and mammals, due to the
bio-accumulative* processes. Flame retardants have been found in human
blood and researchers fear that disturbances in foetus development may
occur.
The relevant TCO´95 and TCO'99 demand require that plastic components
weighing more than 25 grams must not contain flame retardants with
organically bound bromine or chlorine. Flame retardants are allowed in the
printed circuit boards since no substitutes are available.
Cadmium:**
Cadmium is present in rechargeable batteries and in the colour-generating
layers of certain computer displays. Cadmium damages the nervous system
and is toxic in high doses.
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm
(parts per million) of cadmium. The colour-generating layers of display
screens must not contain any cadmium.
30
hp L1815 LCD Monitor
Regulatory Information
The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that batteries, the colour-generating
layers of display screens and the electrical or electronics components must
not contain any cadmium.
Mercury:**
Mercury is sometimes found in batteries, relays and switches. It damages the
nervous system and is toxic in high doses.
TCO'95 requirement states that batteries may not contain more than 25 ppm
(parts per million) of mercury. The relevant TCO'99 requirement states that
batteries may not contain any mercury.
Both TCO´95 and TCO´99 also demand that mercury is not present in any
of the electrical or electronics components associated with the labelled unit.
There is however one exception. Mercury is, for the time being, permitted in
the back light system of flat panel monitors as there today is no commercially
available alternative. TCO aims on removing this exception when a mercury
free alternative is available.
CFCs (freons):
The relevant TCO’95 and TCO'99 requirement state that neither CFCs nor
HCFCs may be used during the manufacture and assembly of the product.
CFCs (freons) are sometimes used for washing printed circuit boards. CFCs
break down ozone and thereby damage the ozone layer in the stratosphere,
causing increased reception on earth of ultraviolet light with e.g. increased
risks of skin cancer (malignant melanoma) as a consequence.
Lead:**
Lead can be found in picture tubes, display screens, solders and capacitors.
Lead damages the nervous system and in higher doses, causes lead
poisoning. The relevant TCO’95 and TCO´99 requirement permit the
inclusion of lead since no replacement has yet been developed.
* Bio-accumulative is defined as substances which accumulate within living organisms.
** Lead, Cadmium and Mercury are heavy metals which are Bio-accumulative.
