MAIN FEATURES

Energy saving features

This product has the following two power reducing modes that conform to the Energy Star guidelines to help conserve natural resources and reduce environmental pollution.

Preheat mode

The preheat mode is the first level of power reduction. The power is reduced to the fuser unit a preset time after the machine has completed a job and no further machine operations have been performed. The machine can recover to the ready condition within a short period of time. The preset time to enter the mode can be set by a key operator program.

Auto power shut-off mode

As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, SHARP has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

The auto power shut-off mode is the second level of power reduction. In this mode power is shut off to the fusing unit and the touch panel. In this state more energy is saved than in the preheat mode but the time to recover to the ready condition will be longer. The preset time to enter this mode can be set by a key operator program.

When this product is used as a printer, and either of the above modes is active, the mode will be deactivated automatically by an incoming job and the machine will automatically warm up and start to print when it has reached the ready temperature.

When this product is configured for multi-function operation, and either of the above modes is active, the mode will be deactivated as above by an incoming print job. Either mode will also be deactivated by operation of DOCUMENT FILING, IMAGE SEND or COPY mode key.
