Information on the Device Dell™ C2660dn Color Laser Printer
Electric power
consumption
of a device
depends both
on its
characteristics
and on the
way you use it.
Your device is
designed and
pre-set so that
you can save
electricity
costs. It
switches over to the mode "ready" after the last copy. From there, the device
can immediately start printing again if required. If not required, the device
switches over to electric power saving modes in two steps after a certain time,
which is called activation time. In these modes, it consumes less power
(watt). The device will take some more time to print again from an electric
power saving mode than from the mode "ready". This delay is called return
time, which is quite long for some devices. The device Dell™ C2660dn Color
Laser Printer, however, fulfills the strict Blue Angel requirements for the
return time (http://www.blauer-engel.de). It only takes 13 seconds, for
example, to return from Energy saving mode 2 to ready mode for printing.
This is only a short moment for you but will help you to save electricity and
hence operating costs if the device is pausing (hence, during no-load
operation).
The device is so designed in such a way that switching it on and off up to
twice a day to the plug-in off mode will not cause damage.
You will find the single values of power consumption as well as of activation
and return time in the table below. The values stated are pre-set when the
device is delivered. The device meets the Blue Angel requirements with these
values.
