Sleep Timer Setting
This printer is equipped with a sleep timer function for conserving energy in cases where
there has been no operation from the control panel or data has not been received for a pre-
determined period of time.
The sleep timer can be set anywhere from 0 to 120 minutes in 5-minute increments. Setting
the sleep timer to 0 turns it off. The sleep timer is set at the factory to 30 minutes.
Once the set time arrives, the printer will display Sleeping and all indicators will go out.
This minimizes the amount of energy used.

will light and it will enter ready status.
