Section 4 BASIC OPERATION
Metric specification
It is possible to put the copier into either one of two energy saving
modes (a state of sleep) even when the main power switch is turned
ON ( | ).
● Low power mode
Press the [Energy Saver] key in order to put the copier into the Low
power mode. Only the [Energy Saver], [Power], and main power
indicator lamps will light on the operation panel and the rest of the
indications will go out. To resume copying, press the [Energy Saver]
key once again. It will take the copier less than 12 seconds to return
to a copy-ready state.
● Sleep mode
Press the [Power] key in order to put the copier into the Sleep mode.
Only the main power indicator lamp will light on the operation panel
and the rest of the indications will go out. In the Sleep mode, power
consumption is reduced even further than it is in the Low power mode.
To resume copying, press the [Power] key once again. It will take the
copier less than 25 seconds to return to a copy-ready state.
NOTES
• If the optional Printer Kit or Printer/Scanner Kit is installed in your
copier, you can switch between the energy-saving modes (Low
power mode and Sleep mode) that will be entered into when the
[Energy Saver] key is pressed. To change the energy-saving mode,
see "Changing the energy-saving mode" on page 7-58.
• If you are using a standard copier, or if the optional Fax Kit is
installed in your copier, you can press the [Energy Saver] key to
engage the Low power mode.
• If the optional Fax Kit, Printer Kit or Printer/Scanner Kit are installed
in your copier and a received fax job or a print job is detected while
the copier is in one of the energy-saving modes, it will automatically
return to a copy-ready state and print out the corresponding job.

Energy Saver
The following two functions will also automatically cause the copier to
enter the corresponding energy-saving mode if no operation is
performed for a designated period of time.
● Auto low power function
If no operation is performed on the copier for a designated period of
time (adjustable between 1 and 240 minutes), the auto low power
function will engage and cause the copier to automatically enter the
Low power mode.
The factory default setting is for 15 minutes.
● Auto sleep function
If no operation is performed on the copier for a designated period of
time (adjustable between 1 and 240 minutes), the auto sleep function
will engage and cause the copier to automatically enter the Sleep
mode.
The factory default setting is for 60 minutes.
Copiers are generally in a standby mode more than they are in actual
operation, so power consumption in the standby mode occupies a
large part of overall consumption. Having the copier enter a rest state
after a certain amount of time, reduces unnecessary power
consumption in the standby mode and as a result can save on
electricity bills.
NOTES
• The auto low power function will not engage when the copier is in
the sleep mode.
• In order to change the amount of time that will elapse before the
auto low power function engages, see "Auto low power time" on
page 7-48.
• In order to change the amount of time that will elapse before the
auto sleep function engages, see "Auto sleep time" on page 7-47. In
order to disable the auto sleep function, see "Auto sleep ON/OFF"
on page 7-57.
