<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
printer
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-2030/2040) or 7W (HL-2070N)
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 2,500 (Standard toner cartridge) pages at 5% coverage for A4
paper for the standard cartridge, which is both cost effective and ecologically friendly.
