before it holds jobs that require unavailable resources and

continues to print other jobs in the print queue

Timeouts

Power Saver

1–240 min

Sets the amount of time the printer waits after a job is printed

before it goes into a reduced power state
Notes:

30 minutes is the factory default setting.

Lower settings conserve more energy, but may require longer

warm-up times.

circuit with room lighting or you notice lights flickering in the

room.

Select a high setting if the printer is in constant use. Under

most circumstances, this keeps the printer ready to print with

minimum warm-up time.
