Set Sleep Mode Countdown

The Sleep Mode (or Power Save Mode) setting can reduce power consumption. When the machine is in Sleep Mode, it acts as though it is turned off. The machine will wake up and start printing when it receives a print job or a fax. Use these instructions to set a time delay (countdown) before the machine enters Sleep Mode.
  • The timer will restart if any operation is carried out on the machine, such as receiving a fax or a print job.
  • The factory setting is five minutes.
  • When the machine goes into Sleep Mode, the LCD backlight turns off.
