How can I disable the heater after unattended printing finished?

Setting the [STANDBY] and [OFF TIME] for the print heaters. *Indicates available only during printing.
Timers can be programmed to place the printer heaters in STANDBY or OFF mode after printing. 『STANDBY』 sets the heater temperature to a preheat condition that is 3 to 5 degrees lower than the print heat. This prevents excess heat absorption by the print media. 『OFF TIME』 will switch off power to the heaters completely.
The heaters will perform as described in the table below:

※ The heaters will climb to the programmed temperature if any key is pressed or print data is received.
