Hi John
I did have the same problem long time ago, regarding the MP2100 will not
go to sleep.
Someone on the list mention that some corrupted system soup or sometime
like that, I am not really sure because that is long time ago.
I was told to backup the MP, hard reset it then install the software one
at a time.
And it works for me.
