Temperature control of the fixing heater is done by using the main thermistor, which is in contact with the centre part of the heater, to detect temperature. Sub-
thermistors 1 and 2, which contact the ends of the film, are there to detect temperature rises at the ends of the fixing film, which happen when small size paper (A4R,
etc.) is being fed continuously.

The purpose of this function is to reduce the time required for the first print by pre-heating the fixing unit in standby, according to prescribed conditions.
A. Flying start temperature control
Applied 15 seconds after receiving flying start. The temperature is adjusted (between 160 deg C and 190 deg C), according to the time elapsed since the previous
job finished. The purpose of this function is to reduce the time required for the first print by adjusting the temperature.
Reference:
Specifically, flying start is initiated with the following timings.
- With the control panel Copy/ Copy (quick) screen displayed, one of the control panel soft keys is touched, one of the numeric keys is pressed, or a cassette is
opened/ closed.
- Common to all function tabs on the control panel, a control panel tab toggle button (soft key) is pressed.
- In some other mode, the device recovers from sleep1 or sleep2.
B. Temperature control after job ends
Drum rotation will stop 5 seconds after a job has finished.
In this control, it is a target temperature control to shorten the print time that hangs to the job since the consecutive second.
The temperature is adjusted (between 160 deg C and 190 deg C), according to the time elapsed since the previous job finished.
