The main power switch

TURNING ON THE POWER

This section describes how to turn on/off the machine's power and how to restart the machine. Operate two power switches: the main power switch inside the front cover, located in the lower left corner, and the [Power] button on the operation panel.

When a finisher (large stacker) or saddle stitch finisher (large stacker) is installed on the MX-5050N/MX-5070N/MX-6050N/ MX-6070N, open the front cover on the finisher (large stacker), or the front upper cover on the saddle stitch finisher (large stacker), before opening the front cover of the machine.

Turning on the power

• Turn the main power switch to the " " position.

• When the main power indicator lights in green, press the [Power] button.

Turning off the power

Turn off the power by pressing the [Power] button, then turn the main power switch to the " " position.

Restart the machine

Turn off the power by pressing the [Power] button and then press it again to turn on the power.

• When turning off the main power switch, press the [Power] button on the operation panel and then turn the main power switch to the " " position. In a sudden case of main power outage, turn the power for the machine back on and then turn it off in the correct order. If the machine is left for a long time with the main power having been turned off prior to the [Power] button being turned off, abnormal noises, degraded image quality or other problems may result.

• Turn off both the [Power] button and the main power switch and unplug the power cord if you suspect a machine failure, if there is a bad thunderstorm nearby, or when you are moving the machine.

• When using the fax or Internet fax function, always keep the main power switch in the " " position.

• In order for some settings to take effect, the machine must be restarted. In some states of the machine, restarting with the [Power] button may not make the settings take effect. In this case, turn off the main power switch and then turn it on again.

This mode turns off the power to the operation panel and the fusing unit, and makes the machine wait in the lowest power consumption state. Auto Power Shut-Off Timer will activate when the set duration of time elapses in waiting status without executing a job. Compared to preheat mode, the power-saving rate is considerably higher but the wakeup time is longer.

The [Power Save] button blinks when the machine is in Auto Power Shut-Off Timer.

Auto Power Shut-Off Timer is also activated by pressing the [Power Save] button while the [Power Save] button is not lit. This mode is cleared when print data is being received, fax data is being output, or when the [Power Save] button is pressed while it is blinking.

To set Auto Power Shut-Off Timer:

In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Energy Save] → [Eco Setting] → [Auto Power Shut-Off].

A message appears 15 seconds before Auto Power Shut-Off Mode is entered. To close the message and continue normal operation, tap the [Continue] button.

The message appears again 15 seconds before the end of the extension of normal operation time. If no action is taken within 15 seconds after the message appears, the machine enters auto power shutoff mode.

To set display of the message:

In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Energy Save] → [Eco Setting] → [Display Message When Extending Transition Time to Preheat/Auto Power Shut-Off Mode].
