POWER SAVE MODES
The copier has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption
thereby reducing the cost of operation. In addition, these modes conserve
natural resources and help reduce environmental pollution. The two power
save modes are preheat mode and auto power shut-off mode.
● User programs
The preheat activation time and the auto power shut-off time have been
preset at the factory to 90 sec. for preheat mode and 30 min. for auto power
shut-off mode. These times can be changed using user programs. It is
suggested that you set appropriate times according to the actual usage of
the copier. See page 51.
Preheat mode
When the copier enters the preheat mode, the POWER SAVE indicator will
light up and other indicators will remain on or off as before. 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 within 10 seconds after any key
input or copier operation such as paper tray operation is performed.
Auto power shut-off mode
If the auto power shut-off mode is enabled, the copier will automatically turn
off the power 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. The power switch will automatically be turned to the “OFF” position.
To turn the power back on, simply turn the power switch to the “ON”
position.
● If an optional printer expansion kit or facsimile expansion kit is installed
and this mode is enabled, the POWER SAVE indicator will light up and
all other indicators will go out. The auto power shut-off mode saves more
power but requires a longer time to warm up before copying can begin.
