GETTING STARTED
Power on and off
Sleep mode
If the sleep mode is enabled, the copier will enter the mode once a
programmed length of time has elapsed without any copier
operation after the last copy of a run is made or the power is first
turned on. When the copier enters the sleep mode, the display on
the touch panel will disappear. In this condition, power is not
supplied to the fuser in the copier. To exit from the sleep mode,
press the COPY key.
★ KEY OPERATOR See page 25 of the KEY OPERATOR’S GUIDE for
setting the sleep mode timer. See page 30 of the KEY OPERATOR’S
GUIDE for enabling or disabling the sleep mode.
Preheat mode
The copier will enter the mode once the set time has elapsed without
any copier operation after the last copy of a run is made or power is
turned on.
When the copier enters the preheat mode, the message “
PREHEAT
MODE. PLACE ORIGINALS .” will appear.
In this condition, the fuser in the copier is maintained at a lower heat
level thereby saving power. The preheat level is, however, high
enough to allow the copier to come to a ready condition or begin
copying approximately 30 seconds after any key input is made.
To copy from the preheat mode, make desired copier selections and
press a START key using the normal copying procedure.
★ KEY OPERATOR See page 26 of the KEY OPERATOR’S GUIDE for
information on setting the preheat mode.

POWER ON AND OFF
Power save modes
The copier has two power save modes to reduce overall power
consumption and thereby reduce the cost of operation and to conserve
natural resources to help reduce environmental pollution. The two
power save modes are preheat mode and sleep mode.
★ KEY OPERATOR
The preheat activation time and the sleep activation time have been
preset at the factory to 15 min. for preheat mode and 60 min. for sleep
mode. These times can be changed as described in the key operator’s
guide. It is suggested that you set appropriate times according to the
actual usage of the copier.
