Environment-Friendly
<Economy Printing Mode (Toner Save Mode)>
This feature will cut your printing cost by saving toner. It is useful for obtaining draft copies for
proof-reading. You can select the toner saving economy mode through the Windows

printer
driver supplied with your printer.
<Sleep Mode (Power Save Mode)>
Sleep mode automatically reduces power consumption when the printer is not in use for a
certain period of time. The printer consumes less than 8.5W when in sleep mode.
<Low Running Cost>
Since the toner cartridge is separate from the drum unit, you need to replace only the toner
cartridge after printing around 3,500 (Standard cartridge) pages or 7,000 (High yield cartridge)
at 5% coverage for A4 paper for the standard cartridge, which is both cost effective and
ecologically friendly.

• Code 39 • US-PostNet • EAN-8
