Energy Star (ENERGY STAR
®
) Program
We have determined as a participating company in the International
Energy Star Program that this machine is compliant with the standards laid
out in the International Energy Star Program.
International Energy Star Program has as its basic goals the promotion of
efficient energy use and the reduction of the environmental pollution that
accompanies energy consumption by promoting the manufacture and sale
of products that fulfill program standards.
International Energy Star Program standards require that multi-function
machines come equipped with a Low Power Mode where energy
consumption is reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since the
machine was last used, as well as an Off Mode where the machine
automatically turns itself off after there is no activity within a set amount of
time. When the machine includes printer and fax functions, the printer and
fax must enter a Low Power Mode where power consumption is
automatically reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since they
were last used, and they must also support a Sleep Mode where power
consumption is reduced to a minimum when there is not activity within a
set amount of time.
This machine is equipped with the following features as a result of its
compliance with International Energy Star Program standards.
This machine has a Sleep Mode only to attain further savings of energy.
Sleep
The machine automatically enters Sleep when 15 minutes have passed
since the machine was last used. The amount of time of no activity that
must pass before Sleep is activated may be lengthened. For more
information refer to Sleep and Auto Sleep on page 3-4.
Automatic 2-Sided Copy Functions
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of 2-sided copying which
reduces the load on the environment and this machine includes 2-sided
copying as a standard function. For example, by copying two 1-sided
originals onto a single sheet of paper as a 2-sided copy, it is possible to
lower the amount of paper used. For more information refer to Duplex
Copying on page 3-13.
Paper Recycling
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of environmentally friendly
recycled paper. Your sales or service representative can provide
information about recommended paper types.
