Alarm Control
Cartridge Alarm
Sets an alarm to sound when the printer requires operator
intervention
Available options for each alarm type are:
Single
Continuous
Off
Notes:
• Single is the factory default setting. Single sounds three
quick beeps.
• Continuous repeats three beeps every 10 seconds.
• Off means no alarm will sound.
Timeouts
Standby Mode
1–240
Disabled
Specifies the number of minutes of inactivity before the system
enters a lower power state
Note: 15 minutes is the factory default setting.
Timeouts
Sleep Mode
Disabled
1–240 min
Sets the amount of time the printer waits, after a print job is
finished, before it goes into a reduced power state
Notes:
• 5 minutes is the factory default setting.
• Lower settings conserve more energy, but may require
longer warm‑up times.
• Select the lowest setting if the printer shares an
electrical circuit with room lighting.
• Select a high setting if the printer is in constant use.
Under most circumstances, this keeps the printer ready
to print with minimum warm‑up time.
Timeouts
Screen Timeout
15–300 sec
Sets the amount of time in seconds the printer waits before
the printer displays Ready
Note: 30 seconds is the factory default setting.
Timeouts
Print Timeout
Disabled
1–255 sec
Sets the amount of time in seconds the printer waits to receive
an end‑of‑job message before canceling the remainder of the
print job
Notes:
• 90 seconds is the factory default setting.
• When the timer expires, any partially printed page still in
the printer is printed, and then the printer checks to see
if any new print jobs are waiting.
• Print Timeout is available only when using PCL
emulation. This setting has no effect on PostScript
emulation print jobs.
