Setting the Power key/Power save function
The usage of the Power key on the Control Panel and settings relevant to the power save function of this machine can be changed.
In the administrator mode, select [Maintenance] - [Timer Setting] - [Power Settings], then configure the following settings.
Settings | Description |
---|---|
[Low Power Mode Setting] | Change the time required to automatically change to the Low Power mode after you did not operate this machine. In the Low Power mode, the display of the Touch Panel is turned off to reduce power consumption. [15] min. is specified by default (allowable range: [2] to [60] min.). |
[Sleep Mode Setting] | Change the time required to automatically change to the Sleep mode after you did not operate this machine. Sleep mode provides a greater power saving effect than the Low Power mode. However, the time required to return to the normal mode is longer than the time required to recover from the Low Power mode. [15] min. is specified by default (allowable range: [2] to [60] min.). |
[Power Consumption in Sleep Mode] | Select whether to reduce the power consumption in the Sleep mode.
[High] is specified by default. |
[Power Save Settings] | When using this machine in the factory default status, choose this setting to select the type of the power save mode when pressing the Power key on the Control Panel.
[Low Power] is specified by default. |
[Power Key Setting] | Select whether to use the Power key on the Control Panel as a sub power OFF key or as a power save key.
[Power Save] is specified by default. |
[Enter Power Save Mode] | When this machine receives a print job from a fax machine or computer in the Power Save mode, select the timing to switch to the Power Save mode after the print job has ended.
[Immediately] is specified by default. |
[Power Saving Fax/Scan] | Select whether to give priority to the power saving when returning from the Sleep or sub power off mode to a mode other than the copy mode. When returning to a mode without printing such as the scan/fax mode, do not adjust the temperature of the Fusing Unit in this machine, reducing the power consumption. You can set this option when you have selected an option other than [Copy] in [Priority Mode] that is selected by [Administrator Settings] - [System Settings] - [Reset Settings] - [System Auto Reset] on the Control Panel.
[Standard] is specified by default. |
