Sleep Mode
Pressing the Power key puts the machine into a
resting state (sleep mode) even when the main power
switch is on. Only the main power indicator lights up
and all other indicators are turned off on the operation
panel. Consumed power in this mode is still less than
in the low power mode.
Press the Power key again to resume copying
operations. The recovery time before copies can be
made is 20 seconds.
Note If the machine detects print data or received fax data in the sleep mode, the machine will
automatically recover and output of data will start.
This machine is equipped with the auto sleep function that automatically puts this machine into the
sleep mode if no operation has been performed on the machine for a preset period of time. The
factory default setting time is 19 minutes.
Time that can be set:
Inch Specification — 1 to 240 minutes (in 1 minute increments)
Metric Specification — 1 to 120 minutes (in 1 minute increments)
Copiers and printers are generally in a standby mode more than they are in actual operation, so
power consumption in the standby mode occupies a large part of overall consumption.
Automatically putting the machine in a resting state reduces unnecessary power consumption in the
standby mode, resulting in a lower electricity bill.
Note To change the time that elapses until the auto sleep function is activated, refer to Chapter 3 in
Advanced Operation Guide, Auto Sleep Time.
