Disable Super Sleep Mode

When the printer enters super sleep mode, the network connection to the Local Connector is lost because the network adapter is turned off. After the printer is awakened, the printer must re-establish a network connection the the Local Connector. Authentication will fail until the connection is established. It is recommended to disable super sleep mode to minimize the time needed to wake up the printer from low power mode. Contact Toshiba for instructions on how to disable super sleep mode.
