(b) Oil Rate Counter
The Oil Rate Counter accumulates the amount of oil being used.
The oil rate is calculated from the following:
• The printing counts (PV counts) for one hour after a Power
ON
• The Fuser Oil amount calculated for 1 print (A4 (LEF)) from
the PV counts.
The Oil Rate Counter detects an end of life warning or No Fuser
Oil. The counter detects the following:

2. New/Old Oil Roll Assembly detection
The CRU Switch Assembly detects a new/old Oil Roll Assembly.
Metal foil has been attached to the Oil Roll Assembly. The CRU
Switch Assembly checks the conductivity of the foil.
Conductive: Oil Roll Assembly is new.
Not conductive: Oil Roll Assembly is old.
(When the Oil Cam Assembly rotates, the Oil Cam Assembly pin
cuts the metal foil. This action activates the PV Counter and Oil
Rate Counter.)
