Energy Saver Modes
The machine is installed with the energy saver feature that will automatically cut off the
electricity to the machine if no copy or print data is received for a certain duration.
There are two energy saver modes: Low Power mode and Sleep mode.
Low Power Mode
The machine's power is not turned OFF completely in Low Power mode. Instead, this
mode creates a balance between low power consumption and short warm-up time by
controlling the temperature of the fusing unit to a level midway between the power OFF
temperature and the "Ready" temperature.
Sleep Mode
Sleep mode minimizes power consumption by shutting off the power to all components
except the controller. Warm-up time in Sleep mode is longer than in Low Power mode.
Entering the Energy Saver Modes
The display of the status machine diagram
goes off, and the <Energy Saver> button of the
control panel lights up when the machine is in
an energy saver mode.
You can set the length of time to wait until the
machine enters Low Power/Sleep mode.
Low Power mode is set to [1 min.] and Sleep
mode to [1 min.] at the time of factory shipment.
If the machine is left idle for 1 minute, it
switches to Low Power mode and then to Sleep
mode if left idle for another minute after that.
You can set the amount of time the machine waits before entering Low Power mode
from 1 to 60 minutes, and the amount of time the machine waits before entering Sleep
mode from 1 to 239 minutes.
Important •
The life of the fusing unit is largely influenced by power distribution time on the machine.
Setting the amount of time the machine waits before activating the energy saver feature to a
long value will keep the machine's power on longer, and the fusing unit may have to be
replaced more often. It may cause an early replacement of the fusing unit of the machine.
For more information, contact our Customer Support Center.
For more information on how to set the time interval for Low Power mode and/or Sleep mode, refer to
"System Settings" (P.116) and "Energy Saver Settings (General Setup)" (P.37).
