CQ8900 Energy Saver specifications

[Keith896069-xrx]

Looking for technical specifications / definitions of the Energy Saver options in the CQ8900. What will happen when "Intelligent Ready" is selected?

What will happen when "Fast Resume" is turned on or off?

What will happen when "Job Activated" is selected?

What are the specifications for amount of time it takes for the CQ8900 to exit Energy Saver mode?

Are there levels of Energy Saver such as Low Power versus Sleep mode?

under Fast Resume, select an option:

•

mode.

to low-power mode.

•

Specify how long the printer remains idle before automatically going from low-power

mode to sleep mode.
