Timeouts
Sleep Mode
1–240 min
Disabled
Sets the amount of time the printer waits, after a print job is
finished, before it goes into a reduced power state
Notes:
• 30 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.
