Press the [ENERGY SAVER] or [START] button on the control
panel to clear the mode. (It takes a while for the equipment
to become ready.)

What can i do if my copier is not giving clear copies
Depends what you mean by 'not clear copies'? Is this in copying or printing?
If not clear whenh copying, try cleaning the glass.
If it is not clear colour copies,because the colors are not superimposed accurately it may be you need to align the color system (see Printer Services)
If it black text, it may be the same reason, or a new cartridge or ink supply is needed. Ot it may need a good clean up on the roller or drums, or maybe just old age.
Can I join a Toshiba 281c to a home group network?
It can be worked with a desktop pc having windows 7 straightly configured to 281c and if the device is shared. Then u can access the desktop pc and browse 281c and send prints. Better to start with as a simple peer to peer connection use TCP/IP and observe that it can be accessed via Internet browser, If the copier utility page appear alright that means ur connected. Good Luck!!

Cant print in color with e studio 281c I can copy in color
The 281c can be set to print to black only as a cost saving measure. The printer control panel is accessed through your browser (using the IP address of the printer) and the setting is made there. You should be able to override this through the printer properties in windows, but I have found that the PCL5 driver worked to switch between B/W and colour, while the PCL6 driver did not. So, for me the easy solution was to install the PCL5 driver and use that.
