Power Saver

This printer contains advanced energy conservation technology that reduces power

consumption when it is not in active use.

When the printer does not receive data for an extended period of time, power consumption

is automatically lowered. For potentially faster printing of the first page, you may turn the

power save off from the Remote Control Panel setting.

The energy star emblem does not represent EPA endorsement of any product or service.

The operator button is located in the operator panel. It can be used to accomplish the

following functions:

Briefly press the button. Each time you press the button, the printer goes

to on-line or off-line status. The READY light goes on and off according to

the line status.

To print data, the printer should have on-line status.

To perform a printer self-test:

While the printer is on-line (READY light on), press and hold down the

button until all three lights are blinking (approximately four seconds),

then release the button. A one-page printer status sheet will be printed.

Self test

If the READY light is blinking slowly and the printer does not print any

image, or if you want to cancel the print job and remove the unprinted

data from the printer, reset the printer.

Press the button to turn the printer off-line. With the READY light off,

press and hold down the button until all lights are blinking

(approximately four seconds), then release the button.

printer may need to be cleaned.

While the printer is on-line (READY light on), press and hold down the

button until all three lights remain lit (not blinking; approximately seven

seconds) and the printer begins to cycle up (the printer begins to feed

paper), then release the button. One sheet will be printed.

2-2 Setting Up Your Printer

Selecting a Location

Place your printer on a flat, stable surface near your workstation.

Leave enough space around the printer, so that you can easily:

• open the printer cover

• open the rear cover to remove jammed paper, or retrieve the paper

when you use the rear output path

• remove and install the paper cassette to load paper

• allow air circulation around the vents to prevent the printer from

overheating

Do not place the printer:

• in direct sunlight

• near heat sources or air conditioners. Place the printer where the

temperature is stable and set for human comfort.

• in dusty or dirty environments. Dust accumulation may prevent the

printer from functioning properly.

• near devices that contain magnets or generate magnetic field (such

as loudspeakers or base units of cordless telephones).

Make sure your printer is placed in a well ventilated area.
