Saving Power
The printer enters sleep mode or turns off automatically
if no operations are performed for a set period. You can
adjust the time before power management is applied.
Any increase will affect the product's energy efficiency.
Please consider the environment before making any
change.
Sleep mode
The printer enters sleep mode when there are no errors,
no print jobs being received, and no control panel or
other operations performed. When the printer enters
sleep mode, the control panel's screen turns off and the
internal motors and other parts switch off to consume
less power.
Sleep mode is exited if a print job is received or the
screen of the control panel is touched.
You can set the time it takes for the printer to enter sleep
mode. At default settings, the printer enters sleep mode
if no operations are performed for 15 minutes. The time
it takes for the printer to enter sleep mode can be
changed in the Basic Settings menu.
