Chapter 11
If a print job exceeds 180 sec, the fixing roller is rotated for 30 sec after the job
(so that the heat of the fixing roller is transmitted evenly to the pressure roller).

11.3.2.5 Between Sheets
The temperature of the fixing roller is controlled over the distance between sheets within a print job:
1. If the distance is 15 sec or more and less than 60 sec,
The fixing temperature sequence and the heater (main/sub) control sequence are continued over the distance.
2. If the distance is 60 sec or more
The fixing temperature control sequence and the heater (main/sub) control sequence are performed over the distance
up to 60 sec; thereafter, only the heater sequence control is performed.
