Energy Saving

Introduction

When your fax machine prints fax messages, it uses heat to fix the image on paper.
This heat is generated using a heating roller which must be hot enough to fuse ton-
er to the paper properly. Because keeping the roller hot all the time consumes elec-
tricity, this machine is provided with an Energy Saver Mode in which the heating
roller is heated to full temperature only when a message needs to be printed.
Two available types of Energy Saver Mode are described in the table below.
