Energy Consumption in the Sleep Mode

Return to Overview

To "Settings/Registration Table"

You can set the amount of energy that the machine consumes when it is in the Sleep mode.

Remark
  • The machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely, depending on the status and type of installed MEAP applications (e.g., there still may be applications running in the background consuming power).
  • If there are less than 10 minutes remaining before a Delayed Send job is to be sent, the machine will not enter the Sleep mode completely.
  • If you are using a management application (such as NetSpot Console) to view or manage the settings and status of the machine via the network, the machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely.
  • The machine will not enter the Sleep mode completely when it is connected to a computer via a USB cable.
  • The machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely in the following cases:
  • If <Ethernet Type> in [Ethernet Driver Settings] (Settings/Registration) is set to '1000 Base-T' If the IPSec Board is installed and <Use IPSec> in [IPSec Settings] in [TCP/IP Settings] (Settings/Registration) is set to 'On'
  • IF <IEEE802.1 Settings> in [IEEE802.1X] (Settings/Registration) is set to 'On'
  • If the Wireless LAN Board is installed
  • If the POP Interval setting is set to other than 0 minutes on E-Mail/I-Fax settings
  • In some cases, the energy consumption level in the Sleep mode is 'High' even when the energy consumption level is set to 'Low' when:
  • The imagePASS or ColorPASS is installed.
  • A job is being processed (including a forwarding job, report job, receive job, and sending a forwarding done notice).
  • Memory media is inserted in the machine.
  • An external hard disk is connected to the machine.
  • Memory media is inserted in the machine and data is being communicated between the machine and the memory media.
