If you are printing only a few pages, you do not need to choose this setting. We recommend that you 
change the printer driver setting in Media Type to a thin setting.
Note
This operation makes the temperature of the machine’s fusing process lower.
 
•Improve Toner Fixing
If you choose this setting, the toner fixing on paper may be improved. If this selection does not provide 
enough improvement, change the printer driver setting in  Media type to a thick setting.
Note
This operation makes the temperature of the machine’s fusing process higher.
 
Sleep Time
When the machine does not receive data for a certain period of time, it enters sleep mode. In sleep mode, 
the machine acts as though it were turned off. When you choose  Printer Default, the timeout setting will 
be reset to the specific time set at the factory; this can be altered in the driver or at the machine. If you 
want to change the sleep time, choose  Manual and then enter the time in the text box on the driver. 
While the machine is in sleep mode, the LCD shows  Sleep, but the machine can still receive data. 
Receiving a print file or document or pressing  Go will automatically wake up the machine to start printing.
