Setting the Energy Consumption in the Sleep Mode

Return to Overview

You can set the amount of energy that the machine consumes when it is in the Sleep mode. If you set the power consumption to <LOW>, the machine consumes less energy during the Sleep mode than when you set it to <HIGH>. However, it takes more time for the machine to resume normal operation.


Remark
  • If there is less time than specified in <AUTO SLEEP TIME> remaining before sending a job which has been reserved for delayed sending, the machine will not enter the Sleep mode completely.
  • If you are using a management application to view or manage the settings and status of the machine via the network, the machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely.
  • If you are using the machine as a Windows printer, the machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely if SNMP Status is enabled for your operating system (unless your computer is turned OFF). For more information on disabling SNMP Status, contact your network administrator.
  • The energy consumption level in the Sleep mode is <HIGH> even when the energy consumption level is set to <LOW> when a job is being processed (including a forwarding job, report job, receive job, and sending a forwarding done notice).
  • The energy consumption level in the Sleep mode is <HIGH> even if the energy consumption level is set to <LOW>, when any of the following settings are set in <SYSTEM SETTINGS> of the Additional Functions menu:
  • <MEMORY RX TM> in <MEMORY LOCK> of <COMMUNICATION> is set to <ON>*.
  • <DHCP> in <TCP/IP SETTINGS> of <NETWORK SETTINGS> is set to <ON>.
  • <USE SMB CLIENT> in <SMB SETTINGS> of <NETWORK SETTINGS> is set to <ON>.
  • <POP INTERVAL> in <E-MAIL/I-FAX> of <NETWORK SETTINGS> is set to more than <1MIN>.

    *If there is more time than specified in <AUTO SLEEP TIME> remaining before the set time limit is reached, the machine consumes the same amount of energy as when the energy consumption level is set to <LOW>.
  • The default setting is <LOW>.
