were turned off. Receiving data or starting an
operation wakes up the machine from Sleep
mode to Ready mode.
You can choose how long the machine must

receive any jobs for a certain length of time,
the machine will automatically enter Deep
Sleep mode, and the LCD will show Deep
Sleep. Deep Sleep mode uses less power
than Sleep mode. The machine will wake up
and start warming up when the machine
receives computer data or when you press a
key on the control panel.
(For MFC-7860DW)

faxes from the memory. If you choose not to
delete them, you will be asked again after you
replace the toner cartridge with a new one.
