Saving Energy

This machine is equipped with the following Energy Saver modes: Energy Saver mode 1 and Energy
Saver mode 2. If the machine has been idle for a certain period of time, the machine automatically
enters Energy Saver mode.
The machine recovers from Energy Saver mode when it receives a print job or when any key is pressed.
Energy Saver mode 1
The machine enters Energy Saver mode 1 if the machine has been idle for about 30 seconds. It
takes less time to recover from Energy Saver mode 1 than from power-off state or Energy Saver
mode 2, but power consumption is higher in Energy Saver mode 1 than in Energy Saver mode 2.
Energy Saver mode 2
The machine enters Energy Saver mode 2 after the period of time specified for this setting is
passed. Power consumption is lower in Energy Saver mode 2 than in Energy Saver mode 1, but it
takes longer to recover from Energy Saver mode 2 than from Energy Saver mode 1.
