Page 164 Sleep in the absence of data. The printer reverts to normal operation mode when the printer receives a print job, the operation panel is operated, or one of the exterior covers is opened. The default time is 30 minutes (FS-2020D/3920DN/4020DN)/5 minutes (FS-6970DN). Note Calibration is automatically executed before the printer reverts to normal operation mode.
Page 165 Auto Error Clear (Auto error clear setting) If an error that still allows you to continue printing occurs, the next received data is automatically printed after a set period of time elapses. For example, if the printer is shared over a network as a network printer and one person causes one of the above errors, after the set period of time elapses, the data sent from the next person is printed.
Page 166 Auto Panel Reset (Auto panel reset settings) The Auto Panel Reset function automatically restores the default settings if the panel is not used for a set time. The default setting is On.
