NOTE
If the printer has entered Power Save Mode, the Online indicator is off even when
the printer is online, and only the Ready indicator is on. If the printer receives data
while it is in Power Save Mode, the mode is released, the Online indicator comes
on, and the printer is ready to print.
Placing the Printer Offline
To configure the printer so that it does not receive data from the computer or
specify the settings for all the options in the SETUP menu, place the printer offline
using the following procedure.
1
Press [Online].
The Online indicator goes off, allowing you to specify the settings on the control
panel.
IMPORTANT
This printer comes online automatically if left in the offline state for five minutes or
longer. However, when an error is occurring in the printer (when the Message
indicator is on, or the number in the message blinks), or while you are performing
any setting, such as selecting the menu functions or a paper source, or when
specifying the paper size, the printer does not come online.
