The printer is equipped with a Power Saver mode to reduce power consumption when it is left idle for a
specified period of time. When no print data is received for the duration set in the Power Saver Time,
(30 minutes is the default), the printer enters Power Saver mode. Time ranges from 5 minutes to 60
minutes can be specified, in one-minute increments. Power consumption during Power Saver mode is 8
W or less, and the time required to exit from Power Saver mode to a print-ready status is about 20
seconds.

However, you can cancel Power Saver mode by pressing the
Wake Up
button on the printer control
panel. For an illustration showing the location of the Wake Up button, see
Control Panel
on page 21.
Starting Power Saver Mode
If you will not be using the printer for a while and want to switch into Power Saver mode without
having to wait for it to do so automatically from the default settings, press the
Wake Up
button on the
printer control panel. The printer must currently be idle and have been idle for at least one minute
when you press the Wake Up button. If the printer is receiving data, or is calibrating after having been
in Power Saver mode or having been restarted after a cleared jam, or if you have pressed another
button within the last minute, it will not go into Power Saver mode.
