Kyocera C3225, C2520, C3232 User Manual

0 (0)

This Operation Guide is for models C2520, C3225 and C3232. In this guide, C2520 refers to the 25/20 ppm (prints per minutes) model, C3225 to the 32/25 ppm model and C3232 to the 32/32 ppm model.

NOTE: This Operation Guide contains information that corresponds to using both the inch and metric versions of these machines.

The inch versions of these machines are shown in the screens in this guide. If you are using the metric version, use the messages provided for the inch version as reference only. In the body text, only the inch messages are given if these versions differ only in capitalization. When there is even a slight difference in the message, we have listed the information for the inch version followed, in brackets, by the corresponding information for the metric version.

We have determined as a participating company in the International Energy Star Program that this product is compliant with the standards laid out in the International Energy Star Program.

About the International Energy Star Program

International Energy Star Program has as its basic goals the promotion of efficient energy use and the reduction of the environmental pollution that accompanies energy consumption by promoting the manufacture and sale of products that fulfill program standards.

International Energy Star Program standards require that multifunction devices come equipped with a Low Power Mode where printer and fax functions remain in a waiting state but energy consumption is still reduced after a certain amount of time elapses since the device was last used, as well as a Sleep Mode where printer and fax functions remain in a waiting state but power consumption is still reduced to a minimum when there is no activity with the device within a set amount of time. This product is equipped with the following features as a result of its compliance with International Energy Star Program standards.

Low Power Mode

The device automatically enters Low Power Mode when 15 minutes have passed since the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before Low Power Mode is activated may be lengthened. See Low-Power Mode on page 3-35 for more information.

Sleep Mode

The device automatically enters Sleep Mode when 45 minutes have passed since the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before Sleep Mode is activated may be lengthened. For more information see Sleep Mode on page 3-36.

Automatic 2-Sided Copy Function

The Energy Star Program encourages the use of 2-sided copying which reduces the load on the environment and this device includes 2-sided copying as a standard function. For example, by copying two 1-sided originals onto a single sheet of paper as a 2-sided copy, it is possible to lower the amount of paper used. For more information refer to Duplex Mode on page 3-11.
