When you specify 1 minute for Sleep, the printer enters power saver mode 1 minute after it finishes a job. This

uses much less energy, but requires more warm-up time for the printer. Specify 1 minute if your printer shares an

electrical circuit with room lighting and you notice lights flickering.
Select a high value if your printer is in constant use. In most circumstances, this keeps the printer ready to operate

with minimum warm-up time.
Select a value between 1 and 30 minutes for power saver mode if you want a balance between energy consumption

and a shorter warm-up period.
