Entering Sleep Mode - Canon MF244dw User Manual

Entering Sleep Mode

The sleep mode function reduces the amount of power consumed by the machine by disabling power flow to the
operation panel. If no operations will be performed on the machine for a while, such as during a lunch break, you can
save power simply by pressing
automatically put the machine into sleep mode if it remains idle for a specified length of time.
