Tech Tip: Safe Copier Shutdown

Should you find it necessary to shut down your Ricoh copier, the proper shut down procedure begins with the main power button. Depending on what machine you have, this will either be a blue or green button and will be located at the top, right hand side of the operation panel.*

Hold the button down for three seconds and then release it. The button will begin to blink, and the copier will start going into a state similar to Energy Saver mode. Once the button stops blinking (or in some cases after about 45 seconds) then turn off the copier at the red power switch.
