Energy Saving Mode
When the machine is not operated for a specified period of time, the machine enters the "Energy Saver Mode" automatically. "Energy Save mode" has two modes, "Fusing Unit Off mode" and "Sleep mode", and the machine enters the Fusing Unit Off mode first. In the factory default, the machine is configured to use both modes.
Fusing Unit Off Mode
Because the heater of the fusing unit is turned off but the screen of the control panel is still displayed, the power consumption decreases, but you can start operation promptly. If you do not operate the machine for a specified period of time, the machine emits a clicking sound and enters Fusing Unit Off mode.
You can specify whether to enable the Fusing Unit Off mode and the time to wait before the machine enters Fusing Unit Off mode under [Fusing Unit Off Mode (Energy Saving) On/Off].

Sleep Mode

You can specify the amount of time that the machine waits before entering Sleep mode under [Sleep Mode Timer].
