HP 5M manual Saving Power with the PowerSave Feature

	Saving Power with the PowerSave Feature
	To reduce the amount of power it consumes, your printer has a
	PowerSave feature. PowerSave shuts down the fuser after the printer
	has been idle for a specified amount of time.
	The PowerSave feature is both adjustable and optional. You can set
	PowerSave to start after the printer has been idle 15 minutes, 30
	minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, or 3 hours, or you can turn PowerSave OFF.
	By default, PowerSave is ON and the amount of idle time is set to 30
	minutes.
	When the printer is in PowerSave mode, the printer control panel
	displays the message POWERSAVE ON, which will replace the READY
	message on the printer control panel.
	Error messages override the PowerSave message. When an error
N o t e
	condition is present, the printer displays the error message. At the
	appropriate time, the printer goes into PowerSave, but the error message
	continues to be displayed.
	The printer automatically comes out of PowerSave when you send a
	print job to the printer, press a printer control panel key, load or remove
	paper, or open the top cover.
	When the printer comes out of PowerSave, the printer control panel
	displays the message WARMING UP, as the fuser warms to operating
	temperature. The longer the printer was in PowerSave, the longer it
	takes the fuser to warm up. For example, after the printer has been in
	PowerSave overnight, it can take up to 45 seconds for the fuser to warm
	up.
