Functions that Conserve Power Consumption

You can conserve power consumption efficiently using the following functions when the machine is
not operated.
NOTE
• There will be a slight delay when starting to use the machine next time.
• The touch panel display will turn OFF when the machine enters one of these functions.
• You can print data sent from a computer even when the machine enters one of these functions.

Energy Saver Mode

When the machine will not be used for a long time, you can press the
Saver mode. This reduces the temperature of machine's fixing unit and thereby conserves energy. To start op-
erations again, press the
machine.
NOTE
• The following Energy Saver Mode settings can be selected: –10% mode, –25% mode, –50% mode, and
None mode. (See "Changing the Energy Saver Mode Setting," on p. 6-14.)

Low-Power Mode

If the machine is not operated (no keys are pressed) for a period of about 15 minutes after prints have been
made or a key operation performed, the machine automatically enters the Low-Power mode. The Low-Power
mode reduces energy consumption by lowering the fixation temperature. This function meets the ENERGY
®
STAR Program for energy efficiency. To start operations again, press the
control panel power switch also reactivates the machine.
NOTE
• The Low-Power Mode Time can be set from 10 minutes to 4 hours. (See "Setting the Low-Power
Mode Time," on p. 6-30.)

Sleep Mode

The Sleep mode reduces more power consumption than the Energy Saver mode and the Low-Power mode.
You can set the machine to enter the Sleep mode whenever you desire by pressing the control panel power
switch. However there will be a slight delay when starting to use the machine next time. To reactivate the ma-
chine, press the control panel power switch. The Basic Features screen will appear on the touch panel display.
NOTE
• Turn the control panel power switch OFF when not using your machine for a prolonged period of time, for
example at night.
• The Auto Sleep Time can be set from 10 minutes to 4 hours. (See "Setting the Time to Initiate Auto Sleep
after Finishing Operations," on p. 6-26.)
