USB Interface (for Windows
The printer can be connected using the Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface to a PC or Mac

<Economy Printing Mode>
This feature will cut your printing cost by saving toner. It is useful for obtaining draft copies for
proof-reading. You can select the toner saving economy mode through the Windows
driver supplied with your printer.
<Sleep Mode (Power Save Mode)>
Sleep mode automatically reduces power consumption when the printer is not in use for a
certain period of time. The printer consumes less than 5W(HL-5130/5140/5150D), 6W(HL-
5170DN) when in sleep mode.
<Low Running Cost>
Since the toner cartridge is separate from the drum unit, you need to replace only the toner
cartridge after printing around 6,700 (High-yield toner cartridge)/ 3,500 (Standard toner
cartridge) pages at 5% coverage for A4 paper for the standard cartridge, which is both cost
effective and ecologically friendly.
