Energy Consumption in the Sleep Mode

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

NOTE

•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.

•If you are using the machine as a Windows printer, the machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely if SNMP Status is enabled for your operating system (unless your computer is turned OFF). For more information on disabling SNMP Status, contact your network administrator.

•In some cases, the energy consumption level in the Sleep mode is 'High' even when the energy consumption level is set to 'Low' when:

-A job is being processed (including a forwarding job, report job, receive job, and sending a forwarding done notice).

-Any of the following settings are set from the Additional Functions screen:
