Sleep Time
Setting the Sleep Time reduces power consumption by turning off 
the fuser inside the MFC, while it is idle. You can choose how long 
the MFC is idle (from 00 to 99 minutes) before it goes into sleep 
mode. The timer is automatically reset when the MFC receives a Fax 
or PC data, or makes a copy. The default setting is 05 minutes. While 
the MFC is in sleep mode, you will see 
Sleep on the LCD. If you try 
to print or copy in sleep mode, there will be a short delay...
