The printer is designed with an

auto-off feature

that, when set, automatically places the

printer into a low power mode when it has been idle for 30 minutes. In this mode, the
printer continues to consume a maximum 3.0 watts of power with the radio off (maximum
5.5 watts with the radio on) and turns back on automatically when print jobs are sent to
the printer. You can manually turn the printer off by pressing and holding the Power button
