EPA ENERGY STAR ® (MFD)
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has introduced a voluntary programme, the ENERGY
STAR programme, to encourage the widespread and voluntary use of energy-efficient technologies that enhance
the workplace, improve product performance and prevent pollution. As an ENERGY STAR Partner, the TOSHIBA
TEC CORPORATION has determined that this copier model meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy
efficiency.
ENERGY STAR guidelines for this class of copier require ENERGY STAR copiers to have a ‘Sleep Mode’
feature that automatically makes the copier enter the sleep mode after a period of inactivity. The copier must also
automatically change to a ‘Low Power Mode’ (Automatic Energy Save) after a period of time since the last usage.
Specifically, this copier complies with the following requirements.
e-STUDIO2500c/3500c/3510c
‘Automatic Energy Save’-
The copier consumes less than 184 W (e-STUDIO2500c/3500c)/223 W (e-STUDIO3510c) during Energy
Save.
‘Automatic Energy Save’ Default Time-
The default time for the ‘Automatic Energy Save’ is 15 minutes.
‘Sleep Mode’
The copier consumes less than 80 W (e-STUDIO2500c/3500c)/95 W (e-STUDIO3510c) in the ‘Sleep
Mode’.
‘Sleep Mode’ Default Time-
The default time for the ‘Sleep Mode’ is 60 minutes (e-STUDIO2500c/3500c)/90 minutes
(e-STUDIO3510c).
Note1- The default setting for the ‘Sleep Mode’ and ‘Automatic Energy Save’ can be changed. Contact your
service representative to change the default settings noted above.
Note2- If the Fax or printer data is received in the sleep mode, the copier starts warming itself up and prints out
the data when it becomes ready. Also, when the start button or the energy saver button on the control
panel is pressed, the copier starts warming itself up.
In accordance with EPA ENERGY STAR programme guidelines, Toshiba recommends the following recycled
paper.
Great White MultiUse 20 paper
If you have any questions regarding the use of recycled paper or some recommended types of recycled paper,
please contact your authorized Toshiba dealer.
ENERGY STAR is a U.S. registered mark.
