Direct capability, or is not using these capabilities.
●Auto-O is disabled when a printer’s wireless or Wi-Fi Direct capability is turned on or when a printer
with fax, USB, or Ethernet network capability establishes a fax, USB, or Ethernet network connection.
Schedule On and O
Use this feature to automatically turn the printer on or o on selected days. For example, you can schedule
