Detail When the machine is turned on, the printer starts up and the message “Now warming-up.” appears. After the message “Ready to print.” ap- pears and the Ready indicator lights up, a print job can be received.
Installation and operation precautions Turning off the machine Set the power switch to [o]. Reminder Do not turn off the machine with the power switch while it is making print- ing, otherwise a paper misfeed may occur. Do not turn off the machine with the power switch while a queued job or stored data is waiting to be printed, otherwise the jobs will be deleted.
Installation and operation precautions Automatically canceling the settings (automatic panel reset) If no operation is performed for a specified length of time while settings are being changed, settings that have not been programmed are cleared and re- turn to their default settings. This is the automatic panel reset operation.
Installation and operation precautions Automatically conserving energy (Sleep mode) If no operation is performed for a specified length of time, the machine auto- matically enters a mode where it conserves energy. Although the machine conserves more energy in Sleep mode than in Low Power mode, the machine must warm up when Sleep mode is canceled to begin printing again, therefore taking more preparation time than Low Power mode.
