54 Basic Operation
Power Saver Mode
The printer has a power saving feature which reduces power consumption during periods of inactivity.
This feature operates in two modes: Low Power mode and Sleep mode. As delivered, the printer
switches to the Low Power mode five minutes after the last job is finished. The printer then switches to
the Sleep mode after another six minutes of inactivity. When the printer is in the Low Power mode, the
LCD backlight turns off. In the Sleep mode, the (Energy Saver) button lights up. The LCD panel
goes blank and displays nothing.
The factory default settings of five minutes (Low Power mode) and six minutes (Sleep mode) are
changeable within the range of 5 to 30 minutes (Low Power mode) and 1 to 6 minutes (Sleep mode).
The printer returns to the ready-to-print state in about 25 seconds when re-activated.
îš„ Exiting the Power Saver Mode
The printer automatically exits the Power Saver mode when it receives a job from a computer. To
manually exit the Low Power mode, press any button on the operator panel. To exit the Sleep mode,
press the (Energy Saver) button.
NOTE:
• When the printer is in the Sleep mode, all buttons on the operator panel except for the (
Energy Saver
)
button do not function. To use the buttons on the operator panel, press the (
Energy Saver
) button to exit
the Power Saver mode.
