Customers should use energy saver modes properly, to save energy and protect the environment.
Energy Saver Modes | Description |
|---|---|
Energy Saver Mode 1 | Lowers the fusing temperature. |
Energy Saver Mode 2 (Sleep Mode) | No power is supplied to the printing engine, and almost none to the controller. |
| Energy Saver Mode 3 | Lowers the fusing temperature more than that of Energy Saver Mode 1 (Engine is powered on). This mode extends the fusing unit life. You can specify in SP mode whether to have the machine switch to Energy Saver Mode 3 instead of Energy Saver Mode 2 when the machine has been idle for 10 minutes. |
When the machine is not being used, the machine enters energy saver mode to reduce the power consumption by lowering the fusing temperature.
The area shaded gray in this diagram represents the amount of energy that is saved when the timers are at the default settings (1 minute). If the timers are changed, then the energy saved will be different. For example, if the timers are all set to 240 minutes, the gray area will disappear, and no energy is saved before 240 minutes expires.
