ECONOMY Switch

TONER SAVE MODE

You can turn on or off the toner save mode as follows:

Display Message	Toner Save Mode
TONER SAVE=OFF	Turn off the toner save mode.
	(Factory setting)

TONER SAVE=ON

Turn on the toner save mode. The amount of toner on the paper decreases and the printed image may look light gray.

POWER SAVE MODE

You can turn on or off the power save mode as follows:

Display Message Power Save Mode

POWER SAVE=ON Turn on the power save mode. The fixing assembly of the print engine is turned off after the specified time to save power.

(Factory setting)

POWER SAVE=OFF Turn off the power save mode. The fixing assembly of the print engine is always powered on to keep its temperature at the specified level.

When you turn on the power save mode with the SET switch, the display shows the next sub-setting menu as follows:

TIME OUT=30m *

You need to set the time out for the power save mode from 1 to 99 minutes with the ▲ or ▼ switch: factory setting =30 minutes. The time out is the duration after which the fixing assembly of the print engine is turned off (“SLEEP”) to save power.

When the power save mode is turned on, the printer turns on the fixing assembly again after it receives data from the computer. Since the fixing assembly must reach the specified high temperature, it takes a little longer time to start printing the first page.
