Reducing the Waiting Time Prior to Printing

After receiving a print job, the machine usually stops to allow the fusing temperature to reach an appropriate level for printing. Conversely, when thinner sheets are used, the fusing unit needs longer to cool down to the specified temperature.

By decreasing the fusing temperature during standby, you can reduce the waiting time.

Increasing the value of [Adjust Fusing Temperature on Standby] may reduce the waiting time to start paper delivery after the machine is ready to print. However, with thin paper, it will increase the possibility of wrinkled paper or an uneven sheen on images.

1In the [Machine: Image Quality] group on the [Adjustment Settings for Skill Operators] menu, change the temperature of [Adjust Fusing Temperature on Standby] as follows:

  • When thinner sheets are used more frequently, decrease the temperature by 10 degrees.

  • When thicker sheets are used more frequently, increase the temperature by 10 degrees.

Repeat this step for each of [Temperature on Standby Mode], [Temperature on Low Power Mode], and [Temperature Before Performing a Process].

Note

  • Performing this step changes the amount of power the machine consumes.
