The MFP is equipped with a function to shut down safely in order to:

  • Prevent damage to the file systems in the HDD and the NAND flash memory.
  • Prevent paper from being left inside the body of the MFP (except when paper is jammed).

If the main power switch is a rocker switch, the shutdown process begins when the rocker switch is moved to the OFF position.

If the main power switch is a push switch, the shutdown process begins when the switch is pressed. To make a forced shutdown, press and hold the push switch for 6 seconds. However, if you force a shutdown during the shutdown process, data being processed may be lost. Forced shutdown is to be used to shut down the MFP without disconnecting the power cord when the shutdown process cannot be completed.
