Chapter 2 Basic Operation 2-19

2. 8 Canceling Sleep Mode

The KIP 7100 has two Sleep Modes to reduce the power consumption.
The KIP 7100 will enter Sleep Mode after a certain period of inactivity.

In the default setting;

• Warm Sleep Mode will start after a 15 minute of inactivity in order to reduce the power supply

for Fuser Unit.

• Cold Sleep Mode will start after a 60 minute of inactivity to stop the power supply for Fuser

Unit and some other components.

Sleep Mode is canceled and the machine gets ready when;

• the machine receives a print job through the network.

• you tap on the UI screen then an original is inserted the scanner unit.

NOTE

(1) It may take time for the machine to get ready.

(2) Tapping on the UI screen can cancel the screensaver but the KIP 7100 needs to recover

temperature on Fuser Unit.
It may need another waiting time to start warming up for printing.

Chapter 2 Basic Operation 2-20

2. 9 Dehumidifying Roll Media

If the roll paper is extremely humidified, it may cause several kinds of defective print.
Defective prints you will experience most will be “crease of paper” and “loss of image”.

If the KIP 7100 is installed in such a condition, it is recommended to use the optional embedded
“Dehumidify Heater”.

Turn on the Dehumidify Heater if the room air has too much humidity (65% or higher) to prevent
the above kinds of print defect.
Such problems above may be resolved.

To turn on the Dehumidify Heater, press the H side of the Dehumidify Heater Switch on the rear.
(Press its L side to turn off.)
