Power Saver Mode

The machine is installed with the Power Saver feature that will automatically reduce power

consumption of the machine if no copy or print data is received for a certain duration.
The Power Saver feature has two modes: Low Power mode and Sleep mode.
The machine enters the Low Power mode after the preset time has elapsed if the machine is

left unused for a fixed period of time.
The machine then enters the Sleep mode if a further preset time elapses.
To enter the Power Saver mode, press the <Power Saver> button on the control panel.

Low Power Mode

In this mode, the power to the control panel and fusing unit is lowered to save power.
The touch screen goes out, and the <Power Saver> button on the control panel lights up.

To use the machine, press the <Power Saver> button. The <Power Saver> button goes out

to indicate that the Low Power mode is exited.

Sleep Mode

In this mode, the power is lowered more than in the Low Power mode.
The touch screen goes out, and the <Power Saver> button on the control panel lights up.

To use the machine, press the <Power Saver> button. The <Power Saver> button goes out

to indicate that the Sleep mode is exited.

Note

When you press the <Power Saver> button during the Power Saver mode, the touch screen lights up.

At this point, the document scanning unit and the output devices remain the Power Saver mode.

Afterwards, by operations such as using the touch screen and opening or closing of the document

cover, you can make the devices necessary to activate the machine to exit the Power Saver mode and

make the machine ready to start exiting the Power Saver mode.

When you make the machine exit the Power Saver mode by pressing the <Power Saver> button, the

machine does not immediately identify the movements such as opening or closing of the front cover.

To make the machine identify these operations, operate the control panel before opening the front

cover.

If you replace toner cartridges or supply paper during the Power Saver mode, the machine does not

identify these changes. Before performing these operations, exit the Power Saver mode by pressing

the <Power Saver> button and the <Machine Status> button on the control panel.

The Power Saver mode is not exited by the following operations:

When the following device is connected to the machine and a user performs the following operation,

the Low Power mode can be deactivated without pressing the <Power Saver> button. If the machine is

in the Sleep mode, however, the Sleep mode will not be deactivated by the operation. By setting

longer time to elapse until the machine enters the Sleep mode, you can make the machine exit the

Power Saver mode without pressing the <Power Saver> button.
