Setting the Power key/Power save function

[Low Power Mode Setting]

Change the time required to automatically change to the Low Power mode after you did not operate this machine.

In the Low Power mode, the display of the Touch Panel is turned off to reduce power consumption.

[15] min. is specified by default (allowable range: [2] to [60] min.).

[Sleep Mode Setting]

Change the time required to automatically change to the Sleep mode after you did not operate this machine.

Sleep mode provides a greater power saving effect than the Low Power mode. However, the time required to return to the normal mode is longer than the time required to recover from the Low Power mode.

bizhub C658/C558/C458: [15] min. is specified by default (allowable range: [2] to [60] min.).

bizhub C368/C308/C258: [20] min. is specified by default (allowable range: [2] to [60] min.).

[Power Consumption in Sleep Mode]

Select whether to reduce the power consumption in the Sleep mode.

• [High]: Further reduces the power consumption in the Sleep mode. However, this machine cannot be returned from the Sleep mode when the Front Door is opened or closed (only in bizhub C368/C308/C258) or when the original is loaded.

• [Enabled]: Reduces the power consumption in the Sleep mode.

• [Disabled]: Select this option when a smooth network communication is not established while [High] or [Enabled] is enabled.

This function is not displayed when the optional Image Controller is installed on this machine.

[High] is specified by default.

[Power Save Settings]

When using this machine in the factory default status, choose this setting to select the type of the power save mode when pressing the Power key on the Control Panel.

• [Low Power]: Switches to the Low Power mode. Turns off the display of the Touch Panel to reduce power consumption.

• [Sleep]: Switches to the Sleep mode. Sleep mode provides a greater power saving effect than the Low Power mode. However, the time required to return to the normal mode is longer than the time required to recover from the Low Power mode.

[Low Power] is specified by default.

[Power Key Setting]

Select whether to use the Power key on the Control Panel as a sub power OFF key or as a power save key.

• [Sub Power OFF]: Press the Power key briefly to turn the sub power off. If the Power key is held down, the power save mode is switched to the ErP Auto Power Off mode (similar to main power off mode), which provides a higher power saving effect than when the sub power is turned off.

• [Power Save]: Press the Power key briefly to shift to the Power Save mode (Low Power or Sleep mode). Hold down the Power key to turn the sub power off.

This function is not displayed when the optional Image Controller is installed on this machine.

[Power Save] is specified by default.

[Enter Power Save Mode]

When this machine receives a print job from a fax machine or computer in the Power Save mode, select the timing to switch to the Power Save mode after the print job has ended.

• [Normal]: Switches to the Power Save mode based on the time specified in [Low Power Mode Setting] or [Sleep Mode Setting].

• [Immediately]: Switches to the Power Save mode immediately after a print job has ended.

[Immediately] is specified by default.

[Power Saving Fax/Scan]

Select whether to give priority to the power saving when returning from the Sleep or sub power off mode to a mode other than the copy mode.

When returning to a mode without printing such as the scan/fax mode, do not adjust the temperature of the Fusing Unit in this machine, reducing the power consumption.

You can set this option when you have selected an option other than [Copy] in [Priority Mode] that is selected by [Administrator Settings] - [System Settings] - [Reset Settings] - [System Auto Reset] on the Control Panel.

• [Power Save]: The temperature of Fusing Unit is not adjusted when the machine returns to the normal mode.

• [Standard]: The temperature of Fusing Unit is adjusted when the machine returns to the normal mode.

[Standard] is specified by default.

[Awake from Power Save Mode by Touching Control Panel]

When low power mode or sleep mode has been established: if hands or man get closer to Touch Panel, you can select whether or not to restore from low power mode or sleep mode.

If you select [ON], you can adjust the sensitivity of the sensor.

[ON] is specified by default.
