Energy Star Program - Ricoh 2015 General Settings Manual

ENERGY STAR Program

The ENERGY STAR Guidelines intend to establish an international energy-saving system for
developing and introducing energy-efficient office equipment to deal with environmental is-
sues, such as global warming.
When a product meets the ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency, the Partner shall
place the ENERGY STAR logo onto the machine model.
This product was designed to reduce the environmental impact associated with office equip-
ment by means of energy-saving features, such as Low-power mode.
• Low Power mode
This product automatically lowers its power consumption 1 minute after fin-
ishing the last copy or print job. Fax reception and printing is still possible in
Low Power mode, but to make copies, you have to press the operation switch
first.
For details about how to change the interval between last job and Low Power
mode, see p.32 "Energy Saver Timer".
• Off mode (Copier only)
To conserve energy, this product automatically turns off 1 minute after finish-
ing the last copy or print job. In this manual, the Off mode is called the Auto
Off mode.
For details about how to change the interval between last job and Auto Off
mode, see p.32 "Auto Off Timer".
• Sleep mode (Fax, printer, or scanner installed)
If there is a fax, printer, or scanner unit installed, this product automatically
lowers its power consumption even further 1 minute after finishing the last
copy or print job. Fax reception and printing is still possible in Sleep mode,
but to make copies, you have to press the operation switch first.
For details about how to change the interval between last job and Sleep mode,
see p.32 "Auto Off Timer".
