Energy Saver Mode
The machine is equipped with the Energy Saver mode that reduces the power
consumption by saving the electricity to the machine when no copy or print data is
received for a specified time.
The Energy Saver feature has two modes: the Low Power mode and the Sleep mode.
The machine enters the Low Power mode after the preset time has elapsed if the
machine is left unused for a fixed period of time.
The machine then enters the Sleep mode if a further preset time elapses.
To enter the Energy Saver mode, press the <Energy Saver> button on the control
panel.
îš„Low Power Mode
In this mode, the power to the control panel is lowered to save power.
The touch screen goes out, and the <Energy Saver> button on the control panel lights
up. To use the machine, press the <Energy Saver> button. The <Energy Saver> button
goes out to indicate that the Low Power mode is exited.
îš„Sleep Mode
In this mode, the power supply to devices such as hard disk drive is suspended and the
power is lowered more than in the Low Power mode.
The touch screen goes out, and the <Energy Saver> button on the control panel lights
up. To use the machine, press the <Energy Saver> button. The <Energy Saver> button
goes out to indicate that the Sleep mode is exited.
The Sleep mode requires more time for the machine to exit and to be ready for use than
the Low Power mode.

operation, the Low Power mode can be deactivated without pressing the <Energy Saver>
