• Before switching off the main power switch, make sure that the DATA indicator for printing and the DATA and LINE indicators for image send are not lit or blinking on the operation panel. Switching off the main power switch or removing the power cord from the outlet while any of the indicators are lit or blinking may damage the hard drive and cause data to be lost.
• Switch off both the [POWER] key ( ) 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 "on" position.

ENERGY SAVE FUNCTIONS

This product has the following two energy save functions that conform to the Energy Star guidelines to help conserve natural resources and reduce environmental pollution.
Preheat Mode (low power mode)
Preheat mode automatically lowers the temperature of the fusing unit and thereby reduces power consumption if the machine remains in the standby state for the interval of time set in "Preheat Mode Setting" in the system settings (administrator). This keeps the fusing unit at a lower temperature and reduces power consumption while the machine is on standby. The machine automatically wakes up and returns to normal operation when a print job is received, a key is pressed on the operation panel, or an original is placed.
Auto power shut-off mode (Sleep mode)
Auto power shut-off mode automatically shuts off power to the display and the fusing unit if the machine remains in the standby state for the interval of time set in "Auto Power Shut-Off Timer" in the system settings (administrator). This mode provides the lowest level of power consumption. Considerably more power is saved than in preheat mode, however, the wakeup time is longer. This mode can be disabled in the system settings (administrator). The machine automatically wakes up and resumes normal operation when a print job is received or when the blinking [POWER SAVE] key
() is pressed.

[POWER SAVE] KEY

Press the [POWER SAVE] key () to put the machine in auto power shut-off mode or wake it up from auto power shut-off mode. The [POWER SAVE] key shut-off mode.

The machine is in auto power shut-off mode. If the [POWER SAVE] key ( ) is pressed when the indicator is blinking, the indicator will turn off and the machine will return to the ready state after a brief interval.

Tray 4
Tray 5 (when a large capacity tray is installed)

THE MEANING OF "R" IN PAPER SIZES

Some original and paper sizes can be placed in either the vertical or the horizontal orientation. To differentiate between vertical and horizontal orientations, paper sizes in the horizontal orientation will be followed by an "R" (for example, 8-1/2" x 11"R, A4R). Sizes that can be placed only in the horizontal orientation (12" x 18", 11" x 17", 8-1/2" x 14", 8-1/2" x 13", A3W, A3, B4) do not include the "R" in their size indication.
