[QUOTE="pboulton, post: 208339, member: 9339"] Many thanks for taking the trouble to reply - appreciated! However, this model is USB only so I'm not sure your solution actually applies to me. After asking the question on Brother's Twitter stream a Brother tech support person actually rang me (kudos Brother) and it seems I have misunderstood the printer's functionality! There seem to be 2 modes: [LIST=1] [*]Printer goes into low power Sleep mode after a period of inactivity but wakes up when a job is sent to it. [*]Printer switches itself off after a period of inactivity and shows as 'offline' in the Brother Status Monitor utility. You need to press the 'On' button to reawaken it when you next need to print. [/LIST] You can alternate modes using the instructions here: [URL]http://tinyurl.com/jfwvusg[/URL]. I actually prefer mode 2 as it's a personal printer but it's good to know both modes are available. Problem solved, albeit at the cost of a red face! [/QUOTE]
