Printer Settings

Changing the Power Saver Timeout

To save energy, the printer enters a Power Saver, low-energy consumption mode after a pre- defined period of time since its last activity. In this mode, most electrical systems are shut down. When a job is sent to the printer, the printer enters Warmup mode. You can also warm up the printer by pressing the OK button on the control panel.

If you find that the printer is going into Power Saver mode too often and you do not want to wait while the printer warms up, increase the length of time before the printer goes into Power Saver mode.

To change the Power Saver Timeout value, use one of the following options:

■The printer’s control panel

■CentreWare IS
