Switching to Power Save Mode Using the Power Key
When using the Power key as a Power Save key (at Factory Default)
When operating this machine in the factory default state, you can press the Power key to switch this machine to the Power Save mode (low power or sleep) or the Sub Power Off mode. Depending on how long the Power key is pressed, the state of the save mode to be activated will differ.
Power key | Status of this machine | Status of Power Indicator | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Short press | Low Power mode (Default) | Flash (blue) | Turns off the display of the Touch Panel to reduce power consumption. This machine returns to the normal mode when it receives data or when the user operates the Touch Panel. |
Sleep mode | Flash (blue) | Provides power-saving effect higher than Low Power mode. A time required to return to the normal mode is longer than Low Power mode. This machine returns to the normal mode when it receives data or when the user operates the Touch Panel. | |
Hold down | Sub Power OFF | Light-up (orange) | The power saving effect is the same as that of the sleep mode. While the sub power is turned off, this machine can receive data; however, it cannot print an original. If data are received while the sub power is turned off, they are printed when the machine returns to the normal mode. To enable the machine to return to the normal mode from the Sub Power Off status, press the Power key again. |
When using the Power key as a Sub Power Off key
Select [Utility] - [Administrator] - [Maintenance] - [Timer Setting] - [Power Settings], and set [Power Key Setting] to [Sub Power OFF]; you can press the Power key to switch this machine to the Sub Power Off mode or ErP Auto Power Off mode. Depending on how long the Power key is pressed, the state of the save mode to be activated will differ.
Power key | Status of this machine | Status of Power Indicator | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Short press | Sub Power OFF | Light-up (orange) | This function reduces power consumption and has a greater power saving effect. While the sub power is turned off, this machine can receive data; however, it cannot print an original.

To enable the machine to return to the normal mode from the Sub Power Off status, press the Power key again. |
Hold down | ErP Auto Power OFF | Flash (orange) | This function provides a greater power saving effect than the sub power off mode, which is close to the state where the main power is turned off.

To enable the machine to return to the normal mode from the ErP Auto Power OFF status, press the Power key again. |
