Job log control

Clear all job log data

The machine keeps a log of the jobs it has run. The job log can be used to check general use of the machine. The job log can be written to your computer in CSV format using a Web browser. This program is used to clear the job log. There is normally no need to use the program.

Energy save

"Energy save" provides the following programs to reduce your power costs. From an environmental perspective, this also helps conserve natural resources and reduce pollution.

●Toner save in printer mode

●Toner save in copy mode

●Auto power shut-off

●Auto power shut-off timer

●Preheat mode setting

Toner save in printer mode

Printing in the toner save mode will reduce toner consumption. If toner save is set, black solid areas will be printed as halftone. (This setting is effective only for printing without use of the dedicated printer driver. If the printer driver is used, the printer driver setting will override the setting of this program.)

Toner save in copy mode

This program is used to save toner in copy mode. This program functions the same way as toner save in printer mode.

Auto power shut-off

If the machine is not used for a set duration of time, auto power shut-off activates to enable maximum conservation of energy.

This function allows you to reduce power costs, and at the same time helps conserve natural resources and reduce pollution.

This program is used to enable or disable auto power shut-off. To disable the function, remove the checkmark from the checkbox. Use this program if you prefer that auto power shut-off does not operate.

NOTE

If you prefer that auto power shut-off activates as little as possible, it is recommended that you try lengthening the time setting after which activation takes place rather than disabling the function altogether. (The time setting is changed using the following "AUTO POWER SHUT-OFF TIMER" program.)

Auto power shut-off timer

This program is used to set the time after which auto power shut-off activates.

The time can be set to as long as 240 minutes in increments of one minute.

NOTE

●We suggest you set the most appropriate time according to your usage pattern.

●If you use the program "Auto power shut-off" to disable the auto power shut-off mode, the time set with this program will be ignored.

Preheat mode setting

If the printer is not used for the length of time set with this program after printing is finished, it will enter preheat mode. This function reduces your power costs, and at the same time helps conserve natural resources and reduce pollution.

Select the most suitable setting to match your pattern of use of the printer.

The time can be set to as long as 240 minutes in increments of one minute. (Preheat mode cannot be disabled.)
