I just hooked up my color laser printer wirelessly to my computer. I noticed, that after it goes in to sleep mode, it periodically turns on, makes a few noises and then goes back to sleep. Is this normal for this printer?

Greetings ,

It might be. This could be some type of maintenance. How often does it occur and does it happen at the same times etc?

Laser printers don't typically need to charge themselves, So whatever additional information you can provide might help.

It happens 4 or 5 times a day. I'm not sure if it happens at the same time or not, I will have to check on that.

I'm thinking its cleaning something, but that's just a guess. It might be something related to your network as well.

Tell us what the frequency is if you can.

I have the same problem. Did you figure out how to stop it from waking up?
