Energy saver (auto preheat) function This function automatically puts the copier in the sleep mode if no copying operation is performed for a certain period of time (5 to 45 minutes). In sleep mode, "---" is displayed on the copy quantity/ magnification display and all other indicators are turned off. * To resume copying after the energy saver (auto preheat) function has been activated, press any of the operation section keys. The length of time that the copier uses to recover from the energy saver (auto preheat) function can be selected between within 10 seconds (priority to recovery) and within 30 seconds (priority to power save). (See "Auto preheat time" on page 5-3 and "Preheat recovery time" on page 5-3.) (English text panel) (Symbol panel) 4. Auto shut-off function This function automatically turns the main switch OFF (O) if no copying operation is preformed for a certain period of time (15 to 120 minutes). To make copies again, set the main switch to the ON (|) position. * If the optional printer board is installed, copying will be enabled when any of the operation keys is pressed or data is received from the computer. q Auto shut-off function The auto shut-off function is a power-saving feature which automatically turns OFF (O) the main switch when a certain time elapses without copying being performed. Copiers are generally in the standby mode more than operation mode, and power consumption in the standby mode occupies a large part of overall consumption. Having the copier turn OFF (O) automatically reduces unnecessary power consumption in the standby mode or at night when the copier is left on. The result is a lower electricity bill. * To change the time until the auto shut-off function starts, see "Auto shut-off time" on page 5-3. To cancel the auto shut-off function, see "Auto shut-off" on page 5-3. 4-4 CHAPTER 5 COPIER DEFAULT SETTING 1.
