BEFORE USING THE MACHINE►BEFORE USING THE MACHINE Eco ECO FUNCTIONS OF THE MACHINE These functions help save power consumption by managing operations of sections prone to high power consumption. The machine provides two power-saving modes. Function Description AUTO POWER SHUT-OFF MODE If no operations take place, this mode will turn off the power to the operation panel and the fusing unit, and makes the machine wait in the lowest power consumption state. Although the power-saving rate is higher, the wakeup time is longer. PREHEAT MODE This mode lowers the temperature of the fusing unit and makes the machine wait in low power consumption state. Compared to Auto Power Shut-Off mode, the power-saving rate is lower, but the wakeup time is shorter. In addition to these two modes, using the following functions in conjunction helps reduce even more power consumption. Page 1-22 1-23 Function DISPLAYING ECO RECOMMENDATION SETTINGS (ECO RECOMMENDATION FUNCTION DISPLAY) AS SOON AS THE REMOTE JOB IS FINISHED, ENTER AUTO POWER SHUT OFF MODE ECO SCAN Power ON/OFF Schedule Setting Specific Date Operation Settings Toner Save Mode Sleep Mode Power Level Description Shows recommended copy/print settings for copy, document filing reprint, and direct print. The machine returns from Auto Power Shut-Off and enters Auto Power Shut-Off mode as soon as printing is completed. The machine is operated with the fusing unit turned off for non-printing operations (that do not use the fusing unit) such as image transmission. Use this function to set the times for turning the power on and off to reduce power consumption. When you must have the machine perform exceptionally many print jobs or other special operation on a certain day, you can specify the day as a "Specific Date" and define an energy saving pattern only for that day. This mode is used to reduce toner consumption. Level Select whether priority is given to power saving or wakeup time. Page 1-28 1-23 1-25 1-26 1-27 1-28 1-24 1-21
