Energy Saving Control Function

To reduce energy consumption while in a waiting state, the device comes equipped with an energy saving control function for switching to a Sleep Mode where power consumption is automatically reduced to a minimum after a certain amount of time elapses since the device was last used. For details, refer to Energy Saver Function on page 2-36.

Sleep

The device automatically enters Sleep when 1 minute has passed since the device was last used. The amount of time of no activity that must pass before Sleep is activated may be lengthened. For more information, refer to Sleep Timer (Sleep timer timeout time) section.

There are two sleep modes: Quick Recovery and Energy Saver. The default setting is Energy Saver mode.

Quick Recovery Mode

The recovery from the sleep mode is faster than when using Energy Saver Mode. The machine automatically recovers and prints when a job is detected.

Energy Saver Mode

Makes it possible to reduce energy consumption even further than with Quick Recovery Mode.

Power Off Timer (For Europe)

If the printer is not used while in sleep mode, the power automatically turns off. The Power Off Timer is used to set the time until the power turns off. The factory setting for the time until the power turns off is 3 days.

Duplex Printing

This printer includes duplex printing as a standard function. For example, by printing two single-sided originals onto a single sheet of paper as a duplex printing, it is possible to lower the amount of paper used. For more information refer to Duplex (Setting the duplex printing) on page 4-46.

Printing in duplex mode reduces paper consumption and contributes to the conservation of forest resources. Duplex mode also reduces the amount of paper that must be purchased, and thereby reduces cost. It is recommended that machines capable of duplex printing be set to use duplex mode by default.

Resource Saving - Paper

For the preservation and sustainable use of forest resources, it is recommended that recycled as well as virgin paper certified under environmental stewardship initiatives or carrying recognised ecolabels, which meet EN 12281:2002*1 or an equivalent quality standard, be used.

This machine also supports printing on 64 g/m saving of forest resources.

Environmental benefits of "Power Management"

To reduce power consumption when idle, this machine is equipped with a power management function that automatically activates energy-saving mode when the machine is idle for a certain period of time. Although it takes the machine a slight amount of time to return to READY mode when in energy-saving mode, a significant reduction in energy consumption is possible.

It is recommended that the machine be used with the activation time for energy-saving mode set to the default setting.

Security Precautions when Using Wireless LAN (If equipped)

Wireless LAN allows information to be exchanged between wireless access points instead of using a network cable, which offers the advantage that a LAN connection can be established freely within an area in which radio waves can be transmitted.

On the other hand, the following problems may occur if security settings are not configured, because radio waves can pass through obstacles (including walls) and reach everywhere within a certain area.

Secretly Viewing Communication Contents

A third person with malicious objectives may intentionally monitor radio waves and gain unauthorized access to the following communication contents.

• Personal information including ID, passwords, and credit card numbers

• Contents of email messages

Illegal Intrusion

A third party with malicious intent may gain unauthorized access to personal or company networks and conduct the following illegal actions.

• Extracting personal and confidential information (information leak)

• Entering into communication while impersonating a specific person and distributing unauthorized information (spoofing)

• Modifying and retransmitting intercepted communications (falsification)

• Transmitting computer viruses and destroying data and systems (destruction)

xii

Wireless LAN cards and wireless access points contain built-in security mechanisms to address these problems and to reduce the possibility of these problems occurring by configuring the security settings of wireless LAN products when the product is used.

We recommend that customers take responsibility and use their judgment when configuring the security settings and that they ensure that they fully understand the problems that can occur when the product is used without configuring the security settings.
