⢠Power Saving Timer
Purpose:
To specify the time for transition to the Power Saver mode.
Values:
Enter 5 in Low Power Timer to put the printer in the Low Power mode five minutes after it finishes a
job. This uses less energy, but requires more warm-up time for the printer. Enter 5 if your printer
shares an electrical circuit with room lighting and you notice lights flickering.
Select a high value if your printer is in constant use. In most circumstances, this keeps the printer
ready to operate with minimum warm-up time. Select a value between 5 and 30 minutes for the Low
Power mode if you want a balance between energy consumption and a shorter warm-up period.
The printer automatically returns to the standby mode from the Power Saver mode when it receives
data from the computer. In the Low Power mode, you can also return the printer to the standby mode
by pressing any button on the operator panel. In the Sleep mode, you can return the printer to the
standby mode by pressing the (Energy Saver) button.
⢠Auto Reset
Purpose:
To automatically reset the settings for copying or scanning to the defaults and return to the standby
mode after you do not specify any settings for the specified time.

Power mode after it finishes a job.
