Troubleshooting Phaser 750 Printers

Enabling and disabling the Intelligent Ready feature

When the printer is idle for the time set in the Energy Star front panel menu, the
printer cools down completely. When the printer exits the Energy Star mode, it is
ready to print in about 90 seconds.

The Energy Star default is set to 30 minutes. After 30 minutes of inactivity, the printer
begins a cool-down cycle that requires a 90-second warm-up period before being
ready to use again.

Increasing the Energy Star value from 30 minutes keeps the printer ready for printing
and eliminates the warm-up period. For typical office environments, set the value to
4 hours.

For optimum printing performance and best toner economy, leave the printer turned
on overnight and during weekends.
