<Timer/Energy Settings>

This section describes the timer settings and energy settings.

<Adjust Time>

You can adjust the time in minutes.


Even if you change the time from 23:59 to 00:00, the date will not be changed.

Date/Time Settings

Setting the current date and time is very important. For instructions on how to configure the setting, see Setting the Date/Time.

<Time Format>

You can set whether to display the time in 24-hour notation or 12-hour notation.


You can also specify to automatically synchronize the date and time with a server on the network using SNTP. Making SNTP Settings

<Quick Startup Settings for Main Power>

If you set this function to <On>, you can reduce the time it takes until you can perform operations on the screen and scan originals after the power is turned ON.


When this function is enabled Standby power is consumed even when the power is turned OFF A tone sounds when the machine is turned ON, or when the machine is turned OFF if you set <Sleep Mode Tone> in <Other Volume Settings> to <On>. (However, the machine may not be able to start up quickly and the tone may not sound, depending on the status of the machine.) Even if this function is set to <On>, the machine does not startup quickly in the following situations: When any of the network settings below are set to <On> AppleTalk Wi-Fi Bluetooth When turning ON the main power of the machine after turning OFF the main power in any of the conditions below More than 110 hours have elapsed after quick startup Operating jobs Jobs are reserved Just after using telephone lines Backing up data Accessing to the machine via network After specifying settings which require restarting the machine Error is occurred Using the Limited Functions mode The power cord is disconnected after turning OFF the main power MEAP applications which do not support quick startup are installed on the machine When turning ON the main power of the machine in 20 seconds after turning OFF the main power When turning ON the main power of the machine after eight hours have passed since the machine was turned OFF When turning ON the main power of the machine after turning OFF the main power from the Remote UI

When this function is enabled

Standby power is consumed even when the power is turned OFF

A tone sounds when the machine is turned ON, or when the machine is turned OFF if you set <Sleep Mode Tone> in <Other Volume Settings> to <On>. (However, the machine may not be able to start up quickly and the tone may not sound, depending on the status of the machine.)

Even if this function is set to <On>, the machine does not startup quickly in the following situations:

When any of the network settings below are set to <On>

AppleTalk

Wi-Fi

Bluetooth

When turning ON the main power of the machine after turning OFF the main power from the Remote UI

<Auto Reset Time>

You can specify the time period in which you are logged out and the touch panel display returns to the default setting automatically.


If the login service is being used, the machine automatically logs out the user when the Auto Reset Time elapses. The screen displayed after the Auto Reset initiates differs depending on the following settings. Setting 1: The settings in [Visual Message Settings] (when [When to Display] is set to [After Logout/Auto Reset]) When Visual Message is not set or after the displayed Visual Message screen is closed, the screen that is specified in Setting 2 is displayed. Setting 2: The settings in <Function After Auto Reset> When <Initial Function> is set, the screen specified in <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration> (Setting 3) is displayed. When <Selected Function> is set, the function before the Auto Reset initiates is displayed. (The specified settings and entered values for each function will be cleared.) However, the <Selected Function> settings may not be correctly reflected, and the screen specified in <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration> may be displayed. Setting 3: The settings in <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration>

If the login service is being used, the machine automatically logs out the user when the Auto Reset Time elapses.

The screen displayed after the Auto Reset initiates differs depending on the following settings.

Setting 1: The settings in [Visual Message Settings] (when [When to Display] is set to [After Logout/Auto Reset])

When Visual Message is not set or after the displayed Visual Message screen is closed, the screen that is specified in Setting 2 is displayed.

Setting 2: The settings in <Function After Auto Reset>

When <Initial Function> is set, the screen specified in <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration> (Setting 3) is displayed.

When <Selected Function> is set, the function before the Auto Reset initiates is displayed. (The specified settings and entered values for each function will be cleared.) However, the <Selected Function> settings may not be correctly reflected, and the screen specified in <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration> may be displayed.

Setting 3: The settings in <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration>

<Restrict Auto Reset Time>

If you set this function to <On>, general users become unable to set <Auto Reset Time> and <Function After Auto Reset>.

<Function After Auto Reset>

You can set whether the default screen set for <Default Screen after Startup/Restoration> in <Preferences> or the immediately previous screen is displayed at startup after the Auto Reset initiates.


If Visual Message is set to be displayed after the Auto Reset mode initiates, the Visual Message screen is displayed first, regardless of this setting. Configuring the Visual Message Function

<Auto Sleep Time>

You can set the time until the machine automatically enters the Sleep mode if no operations are performed.


It is recommended that the default value is used for this setting.

<Sleep Mode Energy Use>

You can set the amount of energy that the machine consumes when it is in the Sleep mode.


If the machine is connected to a computer using a USB cable, depending on the timing for entering the sleep mode, the machine may be unable to receive data correctly. Reactivate the machine from the sleep mode, then execute the job again. The energy consumption level may be the same as when <High> is set even when <Low> is set, depending on the status of the machine.


When performing wireless communication while <Sleep Mode Energy Use> is set to <Low>, and <Wireless LAN Settings> or <Use Bluetooth> is enabled, <Compensate for Network Comm.> changes to <On>. If the energy consumption level is set to <Low>, communication failure may occur, depending on the network utility software you are using. To avoid this, press the Energy Saver key to cancel the Sleep mode before using the machine.

<Auto Sleep Weekly Timer>

You can set the time that the machine automatically enters the Sleep mode each day of the week.


If you set both the <Auto Sleep Time> and <Auto Sleep Weekly Timer>, the <Auto Sleep Time> setting is given priority.

<Time Settings for Auto Adjust Gradation>

You can automatically perform the automatic gradation adjustment at a set time every day.

<Sleep Mode Exit Time Settings>

You can set the time for recovering from the Sleep mode.

<Sleep Mode Eco Exit>

When you cancel sleep mode and start the operation, you can activate necessary functions sequentially. The control panel is activated first, followed by other functions activated in response to the user's operations. You can save energy and lower noise by not activating unnecessary functions.

<Use Motion Sensor>

When the motion sensor detects a person near the machine, the machine exits the Sleep mode automatically. You can adjust the accuracy for detecting people by changing the sensor sensitivity.

The following four sensitivity settings are available for <Sensor Sensitivity>. When a user stays in the detection area longer than a certain period of time, the machine exits the Sleep mode.

Sensitivity Setting	Sensitivity Level
Low	With this sensitivity level, the machine does not recover even if someone passes by slowly.
Standard	With this sensitivity level, the machine does not recover even if someone passes by at a regular speed.
Slightly High	With this sensitivity level, the recovery speed is prioritized more than the "Standard" level.
High	With this sensitivity level, the recovery speed is given top priority.


Depending on the sensitivity setting, the machine may recover from the Sleep mode even when not in use. If you are disturbed by the operation sounds made when this happens, you can reduce the noise level by setting <Sleep Mode Eco Exit> to <On>. If you feel that something is wrong with the motion sensor, change the sensitivity setting in <Sensor Sensitivity> or turn the motion sensor <Off>.
