Alarms
Alarm Control
Cartridge Alarm
Set an alarm to sound when the printer requires user intervention.
When activated, Alarm Control lets you set the number of times
that the alarm sounds, while Cartridge Alarm lets you stop printing
when a cartridge‑low condition occurs.
For each alarm type, select from the following options:
Off
Single
Continuous
Notes:
• Single is the factory default setting for Alarm Control. This
sounds three quick beeps.
• Off is the factory default setting for Cartridge Alarm. This
means no alarm will sound.
• Continuous repeats three beeps every 10 seconds.

Set the amount of time the printer waits after a job is printed before
it goes into a reduced power state.
Notes:
• “30 min” is the factory default setting.
• Disabled appears only when Energy Conserve is set to Off.
• Lower settings conserve more energy, but may require
longer warm‑up times.
• 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.
