Energy Saving

Introduction
When your fax machine prints fax messages, it uses heat to fix the image to the
paper. This heat is generated using a heating roller which must be hot enough to
fuse toner to the paper properly. Because keeping the roller hot all the time con-
sumes electricity, this machine is provided with an Energy Saving mode in
which the heating roller is heated to full temperature only when a message
needs to be printed.
The two available types of Energy Saving mode shown in the table below.
