Chapter 1 Scanner Overview

1.5 Power Save Mode

The Power Save mode is a state in which the powered scanner is kept in a low-powered state if it has not been operated for a certain period of time.

If no operation is performed on the scanner for 15 minutes, the scanner automatically switches to the Power Save mode.

In the Power Save mode, the indication of the Function Number Display on the Operator Panel goes out, but the Power LED stays lit in green.

Returning from Power Save Mode

To return from Power Save mode, perform one of the following:

•Load some sheet of paper on the ADF Paper Chute.

•Hit any button on the Operator Panel. Do not press down the [Power] button for more than 2 seconds. This will turn off the scanner.

•Execute a command from the scanner driver.

You can change the time interval for switching to Power Save mode by using the Software Operation Panel.

For details, refer to "Setting the Wait Time in Power Saving Mode [Power saving]" (on page 187).
