Low Power Mode/Sleep
Mode
This printer has the low power mode and the sleep
mode to reduce power consumption when it is left
idle.
When no print data is received for 3 minutes, the
printer will enter the low power mode. When no
data is received for a further 2 minutes (a total of
5 minutes lapse (default) since the last receiving
data), it will enter the sleep mode by default.
When it enters the low power mode, the display of
the control panel gets dark and “Ready/Standby”
is displayed.
When it enters the sleep mode, only the <Power
Saver> indicator lights and other indicators go out.
Also, the display of the control panel blacks out
and nothing is displayed. The time ranges to
specify for the printer to go into the low power
mode or the sleep mode are 3 to 60 minutes or 2
to 120 minutes, respectively. Consumption of
power during the sleep mode is 9 W or less and
the time required to exit from the sleep mode to a
print-ready status is about 30 seconds.
Note
• You can change the settings so that the printer does not
enter the sleep mode.
• For details on the low power mode/sleep mode and the
procedure to change the settings, refer to “5 List of
Menu Items on the Control Panel” (P. 28) or User Guide
