Saving Energy
To print a fax message your fax machine uses a heating roller to fuse the image
to the paper. This roller must already be hot when the paper passes under it.
To maintain a temperature
high enough to permit proper fusing, electricity
is
consumed.
This facsimile
is equipped
with various energy saving modes to
reduce the consumption
of electricity
while the machine is waiting for a fax
message.
Letting the heating roller cool to room temperature
will reduce the amount of
electricity the fax machine consumes.
However, the fax machine will not print
incoming messages right away, it will store them in memory and print them out
after the roller warms up.
Letting the heating roller cool halfway reduces the amount of electricity the fax
machine consumes,
but not as much as letting it cool to room temperature.
On
the other
hand, since warming
up takes only a short time, incoming
fax
messages can be printed right away.
Letting the heating roller fully on is not as economical as other two modes, but
incoming fax messages and copies can be printed right away.
If your fax machine enters saving energy mode, SAVING ENERGY appears on
the display.
The saving energy mode is related to the Night Timer. Refer to the section titled
"Night Timer".
How to start the saving energy mode
Your machine will enter the saving energy mode when machine is not used for
5 minutes.
If you want to change the five minute period to one or three minutes, or if you
do not want your machine
to enter the saving energy mode automatically,
please contact your service representative.
