Power the Printer Off and On

The printer warms up and becomes ready to print within 10 minutes after being powered on. The Energy Saver feature reduces the power consumption of the printer, saving electricity. Switch the power off at the end of a day or if the printer is not used for a long time.

CAUTION: Do not turn off the power right after turning the power switch on. If the power is turned off before the "Ready" message appears on the Touch Screen, the system could be damaged.

NOTE: The printer consumes 11W or less even when the power switch is turned off. To avoid consuming this standby power, turn the power breaker off. See the Related Content for additional information.
