Turning the Power off
Follow the instructions below to turn off the printer. Always check that there is no printing
data remaining in the printer’s memory before you turn off the printer.
•If the power is turned off when the indicator is on, any printing data remaining in the printer’s memory is lost. Press the key while off-line to output any important printing data before turning off the power.
•Do not turn off the power when the printer is starting up.
How to turn the power off
1 Check that the indicator is off.
2Press the power switch on the lower right side of the front panel to turn off the printer.
Press the power switch to the“○”position.
Power saving (Panel off mode)
The printer uses an on-demand fixing method so the power used when the printer is in stand-by mode is negligible. However the printer will turn off all operation panel indicators except for the indicator (panel off mode) to save power if no operations are carried out and no data is sent from the computer for a set time.
The panel off mode is automatically canceled if data is sent from the computer or an operation panel key is pressed.
You can set the panel off mode time-out from the menu.

Label sheet
• The following types of label sheet can cause paper jams that are hard to remove or damage the printer. Do not use sheet that has adhesive surfaces exposed or sheet from which labels have been removed to leave the lower surface exposed.
Transparencies
• Transparencies may be difficult to separate from each other. Take several sheets and loosen them by flexing them several times before loading them into the printer.
Secondary original drawing paper (Tracing paper)
• Sheets of tracing paper may be difficult to separate from each other. Take several sheets and loosen them by flexing them several times before loading them into the printer.
•Check which side of the paper is face up and which side is face down. When you load tracing paper into the paper cassette, load it so that the face-up side is face down. When you load tracing paper into the paper tray, load it so that the face-up side is face up.
•When you first open a packet of tracing paper, the paper could be warped. Before loading the paper into the printer, leave it in its packaging for a while to allow it to straighten out.
•Remove each sheet of tracing paper from the output tray as soon as it is outputted to prevent paper jams.
If you want to use recycled paper in the duplex unit
If you use recycled paper that has been stored in extremely humid conditions such as during the wet season or in a room without air-conditioning during summer this could cause the paper to crease or bend at the corners.
If this happens, it should be dealt with in the following ways.
Leave the paper in an air-conditioned room for two hours before using itTurn the paper over so that the other side is facing up when you load the
paper into the printer
If the paper still creases or bends at the corners after you have tried the above solutions, use new paper.
