This chapter describes the special functions of this unit. Use these functions as needed.
DESCRIPTION OF SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
Toner save mode (page 42)
Reduces toner consumption by approximately 10%.
Power save modes (page 43)
The unit has two power save modes of operation: preheat mode and auto power
shut-off mode.
Preheat mode
When the unit enters the preheat mode, the power save (
) indicator will light up
and other indicators will remain on or off as before. In this condition, the fuser in
the unit is maintained at a lower heat level, thereby saving power. To copy from
the preheat mode, make desired copier selections and press the start (
) key
using the normal copying procedure.
Auto power shut-off mode
When the unit enters the auto power shut-off mode, the power save (
) indicator
will light up and other indicators will go out. The auto power shut-off mode saves
more power than the preheat mode but requires a longer time before starting
copying. To copy from the auto power shut-off mode, press the start (
) key.
Then make desired copier selections and press the start (
) key using the
normal copying procedure.
Auto clear (page 43)
The unit returns to the initial settings a preset amount of time after the end of copy, or
scanner job. This preset amount of time (auto clear time) can be changed.
Resolution of AUTO & MANUAL mode (page 43)
You can set the copy resolution used for AUTO and MANUAL (
) exposure mode.
Prevention of OC copies when the SPF is up function
When enabled, this function may help prevent wasteful use of toner that occurs
when the OC cover is not completely closed.
If the start (
) key is pressed when the OC cover is not completely closed, "
"
will appear in the display and copying may not take place. If copying does not take
place, copying can be performed by pressing the start (
) key again, however, the
scan size set in "Copy effective paper width setting function" (program numbers 25,
26, and 27) will be used.
If the OC cover is completely closed after "
" appears, copying will take place at
the normal size.
TONER SAVE MODE
1
Press the exposure mode selector key
to select the MANUAL (
) mode.
2
Press and hold down the exposure mode
selector key for approximately 5 seconds.
The MANUAL (
) indicator will go out
and the PHOTO (
) indicator will begin
to blink. The light and dark indicator
marked "5" will light up, indicating the
standard toner mode is active.
