ENERGY STAR Program

As an ENERGY STAR Partner, we have determined that this machine model meets the ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency.

The ENERGY STAR Guidelines intend to establish an international energy-saving system for developing and introducing energy-efficient office equipment to deal with environmental issues, such as global warming.

When a product meets the ENERGY STAR Guidelines for energy efficiency, the Partner shall place the ENERGY STAR logo onto the machine model.

This product was designed to reduce the environmental impact associated with office equipment by means of energy-saving features, such as Low-power mode.

• Low Power mode This product automatically lowers its power consumption 15 minutes after the last copy or print job has finished. Fax reception and printing is still possible in Low Power mode, but if you wish to make copies press the operation switch first. For details about how to change the default interval that the machine waits before entering Low Power mode, see “4.Energy Saver Timer” in the System Settings.

• Sleep mode (Fax or printer installed) If the fax or printer features are installed, this product automatically lowers its power consumption even further 30 minutes after the last copy or print job has finished. Fax reception and printing is still possible in Sleep mode, but if you wish to make copies press the operation switch first. For details about how to change the default interval that the machine waits before entering Sleep mode, see “6.Auto Off Timer” in the System Settings.

• Auto Off mode (Copier only) To conserve energy, this product automatically turns off 30 minutes after the last copying or printing job has completed.

Note to users in the United States of America

Notice:

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is

connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Warning

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
