About the scan head
The scan head lamp remains on constantly when the machine is in the ready
condition (when the ready indicator is illuminated).
The machine adjusts the scan head lamp periodically to maintain copying quality. At
this time, the scan head moves automatically. This is normal and does not indicate
machine trouble.
Power off
Make sure that the machine is not in operation and then turn the power
switch to the "OFF" position.
If the power switch is turned off while the machine is
in operation, a misfeed may occur and the job that
was in progress will be cancelled.
In cases where the machine will not be used for a
long time, turn off the power switch and remove the
power cord from the outlet.
Check the following to make sure the machine is not in operation:
• The ready indicator is lit. (Initial state)
• The power save indicator is lit. (preheat mode or auto shut-off mode)
Power save modes
Preheat mode
This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if
the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is
on. In this mode, the power save indicator lights up. Normal operation automatically
resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed, an original is placed, a print
job is received.
Auto power shut-off mode
This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less
power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being
used when the power is on. The power save indicator lights up, the display shows a
message indicating that the machine is in auto power shut-off mode. To resume normal
operation, press the [START] key (
). Normal operation also resumes automatically
when a print job is received or scanning is begun from a computer. While in auto power
shut-off mode, no keys (except the [START] key (
)) can be used.
The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power
consumption and thereby reduce the cost of operation. In addition,
these modes conserve natural resources and help reduce
environmental pollution. The two power save modes are preheat
mode and auto power shut-off mode.
The preheat activation time and the auto power shut-off time can be
changed with "PREHEAT MODE" and "AUTO SHUT-OFF TIME" in the
user programs. It is suggested that you set times that are appropriate
for your usage of the machine. (p.62, p.63)
