DESCRIPTION OF SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
This chapter describes the special functions of this copier.
Toner save mode (page 25)
Reduces toner consumption by approximately 10%.
Power save modes (page 26)
The copier has two power save modes of operation: preheat mode and auto power shut-off
mode.
●
Preheat mode
When the copier enters the preheat mode, the power save ( ) indicator will light up and
other indicators will remain on or off as before. In this condition, the fuser in the copier is
maintained at a lower heat level, thereby saving power. To copy from the preheat mode,
make desired copier selections and press the print ( ) key using the normal copying
procedure.
●
Auto power shut-off mode
When the copier enters the auto power shut-off mode, the power save ( ) indicator will
light up and other indicators will go out. The auto power shut-off mode saves more power
than the preheat mode but requires a longer time before starting copying. To copy from the
auto power shut-off mode, press the print ( ) key. Then make desired copier selections
and press the print ( ) key using the normal copying procedure.
Auto clear (page 26)
The copier returns to the initial settings a preset amount of time after the last copy is made.
This preset amount of time (auto clear time) can be changed.
TONER SAVE MODE
When the machine is used as a computer printer (AL-840 only), the toner save
mode which is set as described below does not function. Set the toner save
mode using the printer driver. See the printer operation manual.
