The FP-7742 & FP-7750 copiers comply with Tier 2 of the Environmental Protection Agency's
Energy Star Program This voluntary program specifies certam energy consumption and
usage standards for copiers Specifically, the FP-7750 will automatically default to duplexing
or two-sided copying mode when more than one original i5 placed in the document feeder In
addition, both the FP-7742 4 FP-7750 will automatically "power down" after a specified period
af non-use The use af these Energy Star compliant copiers will reduce energy consumption
and ulimately benefit the environment
The default functions can be adjusted depending on your office requirements Please see
your authorized Panasonic copier dealer for more delails
