[QUOTE="Sophie, post: 220075, member: 18485"] Your HL-L2300D printer is operating exactly as designed. It goes to sleep if it doesn't receive any data for a while. That time period can be changed by having your computer send a special "set sleep time" command to the printer. The printer will store the chosen sleep time in its internal memory, so you only need to do this once. The exact technique for sending the "set sleep time" command depends upon your operating system and version. You can use your favorite search engine to locate the instructions. But beware that the maximum time period is documented to be only 99 minutes. Maybe setting it to 0 will disable sleep entirely; I haven't tried that. To wake your printer from sleep, press the power button. It will wake up and start printing within a second or so. Waking up the printer used to bug me, but now I realize that it isn't much of a problem in practice. [/QUOTE]
