Sets how long the machine waits before going to power save mode.

When the machine does not receive data for an extended period of time, power consumption is automatically lowered.

Wakeup Event

When this option is On, you can wake up the machine from the power saving mode with the following actions:

Pressing any button on the control panel.
Loading paper in a tray.
Opening or closing the front cover.
Pulling a tray out or pushing a tray in.


	If the machine does not have the touch screen, you can wake up the machine from the power saving mode by pressing any button on the control panel regardless of this option’s setting.

Job Timeout

When there is no input for a certain period of time, the machine cancels the current job. You can set the amount of time the machine will wait before canceling the job.

Imports data stored on a USB memory stick to the machine (Backing up data).

Export Setting

Exports data stored on the machine stick to a USB memory (Restoring data).

Altitude Adj.

Optimize print quality according to the machine’s altitude (Altitude adjustment).

Humidity

Optimizes print quality according to the humidity in the environment.

Auto Continue

Determine whether or not the machine continues printing when it detects the paper does not match the paper settings.

Off: If a paper mismatch occurs, the machine waits until you insert the correct paper.
On: If a paper mismatch occurs, an error message will display. The machine waits for about 30 second, then automatically clear the message and continue printing.

Auto CR

Allows you to append the required carriage return to each line feed, which is useful for Unix or DOS users.

Auto Tray Swi.

Determine whether or not the machine continues printing when it detects the paper does not match. For example, if both tray 1 and tray 2 are filled with the same size paper, the machine automatically prints from tray 2 after the tray 1 runs out of paper.


	This option does not appear if you selected Auto for Paper Source from printer driver.

Paper Substit.

Automatically substitutes the printer driver’s paper size to prevent the paper mismatch between Letter and A4. For example, if you have A4 paper in the tray but you set the paper size to Letter in the printer driver, the machine prints on A4 paper and vice versa.

TonerLow Alert: If toner in the cartridge has run out, a message informing the user to change the toner cartridge appears. You can set the option for this message to appear or not.
Paper Stacking: If you use a machine in a humid area, or you are using the damp print media caused by a high humidity, the print-outs on the output tray may be curled and may not be stacked properly. In this case, you can set the machine to use this function to let print-outs stacked firmly. But, using this function will make the print speed slow.
Ram Disk: Enables/disables RAM disk to manage jobs.
