Set Sleep Mode Countdown
The Sleep Mode (or Power Save Mode) setting can reduce power consumption. When the machine is in Sleep

a fax. Use these instructions to set a time delay (countdown) before the machine enters Sleep Mode.

• The timer will restart if any operation is carried out on the machine, such as receiving a print job.
1. Press [Settings] > [All Settings] > [General Setup] > [Ecology] > [Sleep Time].
If your machine displays the [All Settings] menu on the Home screen, skip the [Settings] menu.
2. Enter the length of time (maximum 50 minutes) the machine will remain idle before entering Sleep Mode, and
then press [OK].
3. Press .
