Use

To

 

Alarms

Set an alarm when the printer requires user intervention.

 

Alarm Control

When activated, Alarm Control lets you set the number of times

 

Cartridge Alarm

that the alarm sounds, while Cartridge Alarm lets you stop printing

 

Staple Alarm

when a cartridge-low condition occurs.

 

Hole Punch Alarm

For each alarm type, select from the following options:

 

 

Off

 

 

Single

 

 

Continuous

 

 

Notes:

 

 

Off is the factory default setting for Cartridge Alarm, Staple

 

 

Alarm, and Hole Punch Alarm. This means no alarm will

 

 

sound.

 

 

Single is the factory default setting for Alarm Control. This

 

 

sounds three quick beeps.

 

 

Continuous repeats three beeps every 10 seconds.

 

 

 

 

Timeouts

Set the amount of time the printer waits after a job is printed before

 

Sleep Mode

it goes into a reduced power state.

 

Disabled

Notes:

 

1–120

30 is the factory default setting.

 

 

 

 

Disabled appears only when Energy Conserve is set to Off.

 

 

Lower settings conserve more energy, but may require

 

 

longer warmup times.

 

 

Select a high setting if the printer is in constant use. Under

 

 

most circumstances, this keeps the printer ready to print

 

 

with minimum warmup time.

 

Timeouts

Set the printer to operate at a low power state.

 

Hibernate Timeout

Notes:

 

Disabled

 

When the Hibernate Timeout timer expires, the printer uses

 

1 hour

 

Ethernet connection to check the value of “Hibernate

 

2 hours

 

Timeout on Connection.”

 

3 hours

 

If “Hibernate Timeout on Connection” is set to “Do Not

 

6 hours

 

Hibernate,” then the printer never automatically hibernates.

 

1 day

 

If “Hibernate Timeout on Connection” is set to “Hibernate,”

 

2 days

 

then the printer follows the Hibernate Timeout value, except

 

3 days

 

when it is set to Disabled.

 

1 week

Disabled is the factory default setting except for European

 

2 weeks

 

Union countries and Switzerland.

 

1 month

“3 days” is the factory default setting for European Union

 

 

countries and Switzerland.
