Setting the Energy Consumption in the Sleep Mode

Return to Overview

You can set the amount of energy that the machine consumes when it is in the Sleep mode.
The default setting is <Low>.


Remark
  • If there are less than 10 minutes remaining before a Delayed Send job is to be sent, the machine will not enter the Sleep mode completely.
  • If you are using a management application (such as NetSpot Console) to view or manage the settings and status of the machine via the network, the machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely.
  • If you are using the machine as a Windows printer, the machine may not enter the Sleep mode completely if SNMP Status is enabled for your operating system (unless your computer is turned OFF). For more information on disabling SNMP Status, contact your network administrator.
  • The energy consumption level in the Sleep mode is <High> even when the energy consumption level is set to <Low> when a job is being processed (including a forwarding job, report job, and receive job).
  • The energy consumption level in the Sleep mode is <High> even when the energy consumption level is set to <Low> when any of the following settings are set in <Network Settings> in <System Management Set.>:
  • In <TCP/IP Settings>, <DHCP> is set to <On>.
  • In <SMB Settings>, <Use SMB Client> is set to <On>.
  • In <E-mail/I-Fax>, <POP Interval> is set to a value less than <10 Minutes> (except when the POP Interval setting is set to <0>).
