Configure the sleep mode timeout
Introduction
The printer offers an energy save mode that you can use when the printer is idle for a
defined period. The configuration of the timer prevents unnecessary power consumption.
The printer uses minimal energy because the power supply of the printer is turned off.
The power supply of the controller remains on. The printer needs little time to warm up
when it wakes up from the sleep mode.
How to configure the timeout value
1.
Open the 'Preferences' - 'System properties' tab.
2.
Click on 'Edit' in the 'Printer properties' section or click on the 'Sleep mode timeout'
setting.
3.
Enter a new value. Thirty minutes is default.
4.
Click 'Ok' to confirm or 'Cancel' to reject your entries.
Note:
The Edit window displays the minimum and maximal value you can select.
Note:
When the printer is in sleep mode, there are several ways to activate the system:
- send a print job
- press the wake-up button on the user panel
- open a media drawer
- insert a USB mass storage device
