A) Preheat mode (The machine enters this mode after passing a
certain time from completion of the final operation.)
•
The fusing section temperature is lower than the normal ready
state.
•
The fan speed is reduced. (Patent avoidance)
•
The energy-saving lamp is turned on and the other display lamps
are also turned on. (Including the ready lamp.)
•
Preheat is terminated when any operation is made (key input,
cassette loading, original setting, or other operation which the
machine can detect). The energy-saving lamp blinks. At the same
time, the fusing section temperature rises to the copy ready level
within 10 sec.
B) Auto power shut off mode (The energy-saving effect is greater
than the preheat mode. The machine enters this mode after pass-
ing a certain time from completion of copying. When, however, the
machine is temporarily stopped by paper jam, paper empty, toner
empty (with the toner supply lamp ON), etc., the machine does not
enter this mode.)
•
Power supply is stopped only to the fusing section.
•
The fan speed is reduced. (Patent avoidance)
•
The energy-saving lamp is turned on, and the other lamps are
turned off.
•
When the print button is pressed, the auto power shut off is ter-
minated and the energy-saving lamp blinks. At the same time, the
fusing section temperature rises to the copy ready level within 10
sec.
•
The time from completion of the auto off mode to turning off of the
energy-saving lamp after returning to the ready state is the same
as the max. warm-up time after turning on the power.

Time required to enter the preheat mode or auto off mode and
