Section 4 BASIC OPERATION
4-11
Inch specification
If you press the [Energy Saver] key, even while the main power switch
is still turned ON, the copier will enter one of the following two energy-
saving modes (a state of rest).
● Low power mode
The lamp in the [Energy Saver] key will be the only lit indication on the
operation panel. To resume copying, press the [Energy Saver] key
once again. It will take the copier less than 12 seconds to return to a
copy-ready state.
● Sleep mode
Just like with the Low power mode, the lamp in the [Energy Saver] key
will be the only lit indication on the operation panel, but even less
power will be consumed in this mode. To resume copying, press the
[Energy Saver] key once again. It will take the copier less than 25
seconds to return to a copy-ready state.
NOTES
• If the optional Printer Kit or Printer/Scanner Kit is installed in your
copier, you can switch between the energy-saving modes (Low
power mode and Sleep mode) that will be entered into when the
[Energy Saver] key is pressed. To change the energy-saving mode,
see “Changing the energy-saving mode” on page 7-58.
• If you are using a standard copier, or if the optional Fax Kit is
installed in your copier, you can press the [Energy Saver] key to
engage the Low power mode.
• If the optional Fax Kit, Printer Kit or Printer/Scanner Kit are installed
in your copier and a received fax job or a print job is detected while
the copier is in one of the energy-saving modes, it will automatically
return to a copy-ready state and print out the corresponding job.
The following two functions will also automatically cause the copier to
enter the corresponding energy-saving mode if no operation is
performed for a designated period of time.
● Auto low power function
If no operation is performed on the copier for a designated period of
time (adjustable between 1 and 240 minutes), the auto low power
function will engage and cause the copier to automatically enter the
Low power mode.
The factory default setting is for 15 minutes.
● Auto sleep function
If no operation is performed on the copier for a designated period of
time (adjustable between 1 and 240 minutes), the auto sleep function
will engage and automatically turn the main power switch OFF (O).
When you want to make copies again, simply turn the main power
switch back ON ( | ).
The factory default setting is for 60 minutes.
Copiers are generally in a standby mode more than they are in actual
operation, so power consumption in the standby mode occupies a
large part of overall consumption. Having the copier enter a rest state
after a certain amount of time, or turning the power completely OFF
(O), reduces unnecessary power consumption in the standby mode
and as a result can save on electricity bills.
NOTES
• The auto low power function will not engage when the copier is in
the sleep mode.
• In order to change the amount of time that will elapse before the
auto low power function engages, see “Auto low power time” on
page 7-48.
• In order to change the amount of time that will elapse before the
auto sleep function engages, see “Auto sleep time” on page 7-47. In
order to disable the auto sleep function, see “Auto sleep ON/OFF”
on page 7-57.
• If the optional Printer Kit or Printer/Scanner Kit is installed in your
copier, the copier will enter the Sleep mode whenever the auto sleep
function engages. In this state, when the copier detects data for a
print job, it will automatically recover to a print-ready state and print
out of the corresponding information will begin.
• If the optional Fax Kit is installed in your copier, the copier will be
automatically turned OFF (O) whenever the auto sleep function
engages. In this state, when the copier receives an incoming fax, it
will automatically recover to a print-ready state and print out of the
corresponding information will begin.
