ivOPERATION GUIDE
Energy Star Program
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 copies come
equipped with a Low Power Mode where energy consumption is reduced
after a certain amount of time elapses since the device was last used, as
well as a Sleep Mode where the device automatically turns itself off after
there is no activity within a set amount of time. When the copier includes
printer and fax functions, the printer and fax must enter a Low Power Mode
where power consumption is automatically reduced after a certain amount
of time elapses since they were last used, and they must also support a
Sleep Mode where power consumption is reduced to a minimum when
there is no activity 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.
Refer to Low Power Mode Transition Time on page 5-22 for more
information.
Sleep Mode (If the copier has printer and/or facsimile function)
The device automatically enters Sleep Mode when 30 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 refer to Auto Sleep Setting on page 5-21.
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 optional 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 Making 2-Sided copies from various originals on page 4-2.
Paper Recycling
The Energy Star Program encourages the use of environmentally friendly
recycled paper. Your sales or service representative can provide
information about recommended paper types.
