Fusing Unit Off Mode
In this mode, the main power indicator is lit. Because the heater of the fusing unit is turned off but
the screen of the control panel is still displayed, the power consumption decreases, but you can
start operation promptly. If you do not operate the machine for a specified period of time, the
machine emits a clicking sound and enters Fusing Unit Off mode.
• You can specify whether to enable the Fusing Unit Off mode and the time to wait before the
machine enters Fusing Unit Off mode under [Fusing Unit Off Mode (Energy Saving) On/Off].
See "Date/Time/Timer", User Guide.

machine settings on the control panel, and perform other operations that do not require
printing.

machine is left idle for a specific time, it switches to Low Power mode.
• Low Power mode cannot be used if Fusing Off mode is enabled.
• You can change the amount of time that the machine waits before switching to Low Power
mode under [Low Power Mode Timer].
See "Date/Time/Timer", User Guide.
• If you touch the control panel in Low Power mode, the machine exits the mode and the control
panel display turns on.
