ENERGY STAR

As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, SHARP has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

Energy saving feature

This product has the following two power save modes that conform the Energy Star guidelines to conserve natural resources and to help reduce environmental pollution.

Preheat mode

The machine will enter the preheat mode once the time set with a key operator program has elapsed without any operation. In this mode, the fuser is maintained at a lower heat level thereby saving power.

Auto power shut-off mode

The machine will enter the auto power shut-off mode once the time set with a key operator program has elapsed without any operation. In this mode, power to the display and the fuser is turned off and only the lowest power is consumed. In this mode, power can be saved more than the preheat mode but more time is needed to return to the operating state. This mode can be disabled using a key operator program.

If this product is used as a printer, when print data is received in the preheat mode or the auto power shut-off mode, the mode will be automatically canceled and printing will start after the fuser temperature is restored to the normal operating level.

If this product is used as a multi-function machine, the mode will be automatically canceled when print data or facsimile data is received or when any key operation on the operation panel or original setting operation for copying or facsimile transmission is performed.
