Set the auto-off feature
The printer is designed with an auto-off feature that automatically places the printer into
a low power mode when it has been idle for 30 minutes. In this mode, the printer continues
to consume a maximum 3.0 watts of power with the radio off (maximum 5.5 watts with
the radio on) and turns back on automatically when print jobs are sent to the printer. You
can manually turn the printer off by pressing and holding the
Power button
for three
seconds. When the printer is manually turned off, the printer uses less than one watt of
power. Manually powering off the printer is recommended if the printer causes
interference with other wireless devices, or if you do not plan to use the printer for a long
period of time.
Selecting auto-off cancels the
FEMP
energy savings mode.
Energy consumption can be prevented by turning the printer power off, and then
disconnecting the end of the printer power cord from the electrical source.
