Auto power shut-off timer

When a programmed length of time has elapsed without any operation after printing is complete, the printer enters the auto power shut-off mode to save power consumption at the maximum. This function lowers the user's electricity bill, reduces waste of natural resources, and cuts down on environmental pollution.

[When using the operation panel on the main unit:]

The time until auto power shut-off occurs can be set to 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes or 240 minutes.

[When using the operation panel with touch panel:]

The time until auto power shut-off occurs can be set in 1 minute increments up to 240 minutes.
