If Auto-On is set to ‘Enabled-No Main Switch’, the printer will power up as soon as an external power source is connected, and furthermore, the Main Switch cannot be used to turn the printer off. This may be useful in some mobile installations where the button could be accidentally pressed. Power must be disconnected to shut off the printer.
Auto-Off:
When the printer is running on battery power, you may wish to have the printer turn off automatically to conserve the battery. You may choose to disable this feature by selecting ‘None’, or you may select either a 10-minute or 30-minute time-out period. If no data is received within the period selected, the printer will turn itself off.

Those users will likely wish to ‘Disable’ this feature.
