Power off

Make sure that the machine is not in operation and then turn the power

switch to the "OFF" position.

If the power switch is turned off while the machine is
in operation, a misfeed may occur and the job that
was in progress will be canceled.
In cases where the machine will not be used for a
long time, turn off the power switch and remove the
power cord from the outlet.
Check the following to make sure the machine is not in operation:
• The ready indicator is lit. (Initial state)
• The power save indicator is lit. (preheat mode or auto power shut-off mode)
Power save modes
The machine has two power save modes to reduce overall power consumption and
thereby reduce the cost of operation. In addition, these modes conserve natural
resources and help reduce environmental pollution. The two power save modes are
preheat mode and auto power shut-off mode.

Preheat mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a low power consumption state if
the set duration of time elapses without the machine being used when the power is
on. In this mode, the power save indicator lights up. Normal operation automatically
resumes when a key on the operation panel is pressed, an original is placed, a print
job is received.

Auto power shut-off mode

This function automatically switches the machine to a state that consumes even less
power than preheat mode if the set duration of time elapses without the machine being
used when the power is on. The power save indicator lights up, the display shows a
message indicating that the machine is in auto power shut-off mode. To resume normal
operation, press the [START] key ( ). Normal operation also resumes automatically
when a print job is received or scanning is begun from a computer. While in auto power
shut-off mode, no keys (except the [START] key ( )) can be used.

Check RSPF open function

When enabled, this function may help prevent wasteful use of toner that occurs
when the RSPF cover is not completely closed.
If the start ( ) key is pressed when the RSPF cover is not completely closed,
"CLOSE THE SPF/RSPF COVER." will appear in the display and copying may not
take place. If copying does not take place, copying can be performed by pressing the
start ( ) key again, however, the scan size set in "TRAY'S PAPER SIZE SETTING"
(p.19) or "VALID COPY WIDTH" (program number 25) (p.57) will be used.
If the RSPF cover is completely closed after "CLOSE THE SPF/RSPF COVER."
appears, copying will take place at the normal size.
The preheat activation time and the auto power shut-off time can be
changed with "PREHEAT MODE" and "AUTO SHUT-OFF TIME" in the
user programs. It is suggested that you set times that are appropriate
for your usage of the machine. (p.54 and p.55)
