Sleep time

Setting the sleep time reduces power 
consumption by turning off the fuser while the 
machine is idle. 

You can choose how long the machine must 
be idle (from 00 to 99 minutes) before it goes 
into sleep mode. When the machine receives 
a fax, computer data, or makes a copy, the 
timer will be reset. The default setting is 05 
minutes. 

While the machine is in sleep mode the LCD 
will display

. When printing or copying 

in sleep mode, there will be a short delay 
while the fuser warms up.
