The machine's power consumption can be reduced by Eco
Mode setting. Although each function setting can be changed separately,
the machine has the "Custom" and "Eco Mode" to allow simultaneous
changing of settings.
You can display eco-recommended functions such
as two-sided printing and N-Up during copying, document filing print, and
direct print.
Setting values applied by each mode is as follows.

The time until the preheating mode works is
1 to 60 minutes in 1-minute units
(BP-50M26/BP-50M31/BP-50M36/BP-50M45/BP-70M31/BP-70M36/BP-70M45),
Set in the range of 1 to 120 minutes (BP-50M55/BP-50M65/BP-70M55/BP-70M65).
Preheat Mode will activate when the set duration of time elapses
after printing ends and no further operations are performed. This
function reduces your power costs, and at the same time helps conserve
natural resources and reduce pollution.
Select the time that best suits the needs of your workplace.
The panel display can be turned Off in the Preheat mode.
Set whether the lights on the operation panel turn off
in preheat mode.
This function works in Auto Power Shut-Off
mode. When the machine completes a print job received from the PC
or outputs received fax data, the machine immediately returns to
the Auto Power Shut-Off mode.
The Auto Power-Off transition time is fixed.
Select [Fix transition time.], and set the transition time in [Auto
Power Shut-Off Timer].
When this setting is enabled, the [Change transition time
by time of day.] option is disabled.
This function controls the transition to Auto
Power Shut-Off mode optimally for each time period by analyzing
the use of the machine based on job logs obtained during a 4-week
period.
When this setting is enabled, the [Fix transition time.] option
is disabled.
Transition to Energy
Saving and Auto Power Shut-Off modes
* Factory default setting
This function controls the power optimally for each
time period by analyzing the use of machine based on job logs obtained
during a certain time period.
You can set a pattern for each time band.
The machine already has the 3-pattern template. The Energy
Save pattern can be added to the "Original Eco Patterns 1 to 4".
Three-pattern template
| Template | Pattern | Description of mode |
|---|---|---|
|
Template 1 |
All "Energy Save Priority 2" |
The machine runs in the "Mode4 (Energy Saving Priority2)" all the time. |
|
Template 2 |
8:00-18:00 "Energy Save Priority 1" |
The machine runs in "Mode3 (Energy Saving Priority1)" between 8:00 and 18:00, and in "Mode4 (Energy Saving Priority2)" at other times. |
|
Template 3 |
8:00-18:00 "Job Start Priority 1" |
The machine runs in "Mode1 (Job Start Priority1)" between 8:00 and 18:00, and in "Mode4 (Energy Saving Priority2)" at other times. |
Low Power :The machine switches to the power
saving mode, but it takes some time to recover.
Fast Wake Up :Compared with Low Power, the power value rises
by a certain degree, but it results in faster recovery.
Motion Sensor Mode (BP-70C31/BP-70C36/BP-70C45/BP-70C55/BP-70C65)
This enables switching of power saving modes by the motion sensor.
This setting keeps the fusing unit off when you perform
an operation that does not involve printing, such as sending a scanned
document.
Set "Eco Scan Setting" to , and select a mode or screen in
which to enable Eco Scan Setting.
The following modes and screens can be set.
This function analyzes machine usage and controls entry
into auto power shutoff mode based on frequency of use. If you want
