This printer is equipped with a Power Save mode to reduce power
consumption when it is left idle. The default idle time from last print
activity until the printer enters Power Save mode is 5 minutes. This
time can be adjusted by the operator to any of the following: 5, 15,
30, 60 or 120 minutes.
When no print data is received within 5 minutes (default) since the
last page is printed, the printer will enter Power Save mode. An
informative message is displayed on the operator panel indicating
Power Save Mode. Consumption of power during Power Save mode
is 10 Watts or less, and the time required to exit from Power Save
mode to a print-ready status is about 10 seconds.
