Configure the energy save modes of the Océ ColorWave 650
Poster Printer
Introduction
The Océ ColorWave 650 Poster Printer offers two energy save modes that you can set if
the printer is idle for a defined period. The configuration of the timers prevents unneces-
sary power consumption. You can adjust the value of the timers.
When to do
Sleep mode timer (Default value 30 minutes).
The Océ ColorWave 650 Poster Printer uses minimal energy, because the power supply
of the printer is turned off. The power supply of the embedded Océ ColorWave 650
Poster Printer controller ('Océ PowerM Plus controller ') remains on. The printer needs
to warm up when it wakes up from the sleep mode.
Energy save mode timer (Default value 1 minute).
Both the printer and the Océ ColorWave 650 Poster Printer controller remain turned
on. The Océ ColorWave 650 Poster Printer uses less energy than in normal operating
mode, but the printer uses more energy than in sleep mode. The advantage of the energy
save mode over the sleep mode is that the printer usually needs just a few seconds to wake
up. Only when the printer has not been used for more than 1 hour does the printer need
more time to wake up.
Note:
The value you set for the sleep mode timer must be higher than the energy save mode
value. If the value of the sleep mode is lower than the energy save mode, the printer skips
the energy save mode and goes into sleep mode. The power consumption will be lower
but it will also take the printer a bit longer to wake up again.
How to configure the time-out value of the energy save modes
1.
Click 'Preferences' - 'System properties'.
2.
Click 'Edit' in the 'Printer properties' bar or click the value of the 'Sleep mode time-out'
setting or the 'Energy saving mode time-out' setting.
3.
Enter a new value in the Edit window and click 'Ok' to confirm your entries or 'Cancel'
to reject your entries.
