Set the printer to enter PowerSave after it
has been idle for a specified amount of time.
Turning PowerSave off is not
recommended. The PowerSave feature
does the following:
1. Minimizes the amount of power
consumed by the printer when it is idle.
2. Reduces wear on the printer’s electronic
components. (Turns off the display’s
backlight.)
When you send a print job, press a Control
Panel key, open a paper tray, or open the
top cover, the printer automatically comes
out of PowerSave mode.
Note
PowerSave turns off the backlight on the
display, but the display is still readable.

Select the default printer language
(personality). Possible values are
determined by which valid languages are
installed in the printer.
Normally you should not change the printer
language (the default is
AUTO
). If you
change it to a specific printer language, the
printer will not automatically switch from one
language to another unless specific
software commands are sent to the printer.
