Step 1 Understanding What Causes Paper to Wrap around the Fixing Roller
There are the following three possible causes of paper wrapping around the fixing roller:
Paper Has Absorbed Too Much Moisture Due to High Humidity
▀
When the humidity is high, paper may absorb too much moisture� As a result, the paper is more likely to wrap around
the fixing roller�
You Are Using Thin Paper or Soft and Flexible Paper
▀
If you use thin paper or paper that is flexible and easily bends, the paper tends to curl� This kind of paper is more likely
to wrap around the fixing roller�
There Is a Very Dark Area Near the Leading Edge of the Paper
▀
A dense layer of toner is applied to print a dark area� If the dark area
is near the leading edge of the paper and the leading margin is very
small, the toner may act as an adhesive� As a result, the leading edge
of the paper sticks to the surface of the fixing roller and the paper is
likely to wrap around the fixing roller�
If the leading edge margin of the paper is small
and a large amount of toner is used, paper is likely
to wrap around the fixing roller.
