Power Saver
Purpose:
To specify the amount of time (in minutes) the printer waits after a job is printed before it goes into a
reduced power state.
Values:
Power Saver replaces the Ready message. When the printer is in Power Saver mode, it is still ready
to receive print jobs.
Select 1 to put the printer in Power Saver mode one minute after it finishes a print job. This uses much
less energy, but requires more warm-up time for the printer. Select 1 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. Under most circumstances, this keeps the printer
ready to print with minimum warm-up time. Select a value between 1 and 240 minutes if you want a
balance between energy consumption and a shorter warm-up period.
Print Timeout
Purpose:
To specify the amount of time (in seconds) the printer waits before printing the last page of a print job
that does not end with a command to print the page. The print timeout counter does not start until
Waiting is displayed.
Values:
