Recommendation - Ricoh M199 Service Manual

Recommendation

We recommend that the default settings should be kept.

If the customer requests that these settings should be changed, please explain that their
energy costs could increase, and that they should consider the effects on the environment of
extra energy use.

If it is necessary to change the settings, please try to make sure that the Auto Off timer is not
too long. Try with a shorter setting first, such as 12 minutes, then go to a longer one (such as
15 minutes) if the customer is not satisfied.

If the timers are all set to the maximum value, the machine will not begin saving energy until
240 minutes has expired after the last job. This means that after the customer has finished
using the machine for the day, energy will be consumed that could otherwise be saved.
