Va l u e s :
Secure Settings
Pa n e l  L o c k
Purpose:
To restrict access to Admin Menu and Report/List  with a password, and 
to set or change the password.
Va l u e s :
*1 Enter 5 in  Sleep to put the printer in the Sleep mode five minutes after it finishes a 
job. This uses less energy, but requires more  warm-up time for the printer. Enter 5 if 
your printer shares an electrical circuit with room lighting and you notice lights 
flickering.
Select a high value if your printer is in  constant use. In most circumstances, this 
keeps the printer ready to operate with minimum warm-up time. Select a value 
between 5 and 30 minutes for the Sleep mode if you want a balance between energy 
consumption and a shorter warm-up period.
The printer automatically returns to the standby mode from the Sleep mode when it 
receives data from the computer. You can also return the printer to the standby mode 
by pressing any button on the operator panel.
