User's Guide for more information.
Specifies the amount of time after a
print job before the printer goes into
Power Saver mode. (The printer may
not support the entire range of values.)
The factory default Power Saver
setting depends on the printer model.
Print the menu settings page to
determine the current Power Saver
setting. When the printer is in Power
Saver mode, it is still ready to receive
print jobs.
Select 1 to put the printer in Power
Saver mode one minute after it
finishes a print job. This uses much
less energy, but requires more warm-
up time for the printer. Select 1 if the
printer shares an electrical circuit with
room lighting and flickering lights are
noticed.
Select a high value if the printer is in
constant use. Under most
circumstances, this keeps the printer
ready to print with minimum warm-up
time. Select a value between 1 and
240 minutes if wanting a balance
between energy consumption and a
shorter warm-up period.
Off—Printer does not sound an alarm.
Single—Printer sounds three quick
beeps.
Continuous—Printer repeats three
beeps every 10 seconds.
Disabled—Disables Screen Timeout.
15–300—Specifies the amount of time
the printer waits before returning to the
home screen.
Disabled—Disables Print Timeout.
1–25—Specifies the amount of time
the printer waits for an end-of-job
message before canceling the
remainder of the print job.
Note: When the timer expires, any
partially formatted page still in the
printer is printed, and other input ports
are examined to see if data exists.
Disabled—Disables Wait Timeout.
15...65535—Specifies the amount of
time the printer waits for additional
data before it cancels the job.
