All the HP printers do not come with the sleep mode option, especially in the older models printers. However, all the new printers come with the option of sleep mode present in them. The sleep mode option cannot be disabled on any type of HP printers, rather than the inactive time can be extended. The inactive time of the HP printer can be extended, but it should be done even before the printer enters into the sleep mode. The extending of sleep mode time is not possible on all the HP printers, but this facility is available just on few printers only.

In order to know if a particular model of the HP printer as this option or not, it is essential to refer the user guide of that printer model which is provided to the user when the device is purchased. So, it can be said that preventing sleep mode is not possible but the time can be extended.

So, the answer will be definitely yes, because sleep mode is just an inactive period but still the printer will be running and does not turn off completely.
