Fair enough, but then that begs the question why they are being heated just because the screen is on. There are numerous conditions that can make the fuser run indefinitely until tended to.

This also begs the question if this Silent Mode Level 2 stops the heating of the fuser while idling as well.

Well power save is called that for a reason, it turns off any fuser heating and some other things.

In idling mode it’s ready to copy, ie fully warmed up.

And yes silent mode turns off the heaters which is why in the documentation it states a longer first copy out time due to the fact it has to warm up again.

I hear yah, but this methodology is myopic at best (in my opinion). Even out of power saving mode they print within seconds. Seems like planned obsolescence...

Also, if not too much trouble, can you provide the document?

Hijacking a thread here but, how does one turn off the fuser idle setting?

I understand this prevents flats spots etc but for some clients a fuser rotating while the machine is not in use is not practical & the squeak the fuser eventually makes is not acceptable.

reminds me of a customer who put one of their old offices up for sale and left copier there as a freebie for anyone who buys the building.

well it sat for 5 months on a print job that was asking to load thick 1 paper. so the fuser was at temp for like 3700 hours lol

It's in your manual, check Engine FW DipSW section for proper switches. Personally I don't recommend it, but if you cannot find switches PM me.
