Preparation before Use
Energy Saver Function
Low Power Mode
When the machine is left idle for a certain period of time, the message display turns off and power consumption is reduced.
This status is referred to as Low Power Mode.
The default preset time is 3 minutes (for P-C4580DN) or 5 minutes (for P-C5580DN).
If print data is received during Low Power Mode, the message display lights up and printing starts.
To resume, press OK key. The printer will be ready to operate within 25 seconds.
Note that ambient environmental conditions, such as ventilation, may cause the machine to respond more slowly.
Sleep
When the machine is left idle for a certain period of time in Low Power Mode, the message display turns off and power
consumption is minimized. This status is referred to as Sleep.
If print data is received during Sleep, the message display lights up and printing starts.
To resume, press the OK key. P-C4580DN will be ready within 41 seconds, or P-C5580DN will be ready within 45 seconds.
Note that ambient environmental conditions, such as ventilation, may cause the machine to respond more slowly.
In case of not using the machine for an extended period of time
CAUTION If this machine will be left unused for an extended period (e.g. overnight), turn it off at the main
power switch. If the machine will not be used for an even longer period of time (e.g. vacation), remove the
power plug from the outlet as a safety precaution.
CAUTION Remove paper from the cassettes and seal it in the paper storage bag to protect it from humidity.
