Energy saving features
This product has the following two power reducing modes that conform to the
Energy Star guidelines which help to conserve natural resources and reduce
environmental pollution.
Preheat mode
The preheat mode is the first level of power reduction. The power is reduced
to the fuser unit a preset time after the machine has completed a job and no
further machine operations have been made. The machine can recover to
the ready condition within a short period of time. The preset time to enter
the mode can be set by a key operator program.
Auto power shut-off mode
The auto power shut-off mode is the second level of power reduction. In this
mode power is shut off to the fusing unit and the touch panel. In this state
more energy is saved than in the preheat mode but the time to recover to
the ready condition will be longer. The preset time to enter this mode can be
set by a key operator program.
When this product is used as a printer, and either of the above modes is active, the mode will be deactivated
automatically by an incoming job and the machine will automatically warm up and start to print when it has
reached the ready temperature.
When this product is configured for multi-function operation, and either of the above modes is active, the mode
will be deactivated as above by either an incoming print job or received facsimile data. Either mode will also be
deactivated by any key operation on the operation panel or by the action of an original being placed for copying
or facsimile transmission.
