5.4.1

Temperature adjustment

The heating of the heating drum will start if the set temperature is above the actual read
temperature.
Note
The infra red sensor measuring the heat on the heating drum is adjusted and

precise for temperature ranging from 160°C (320°F) to 220°C (428°F),
corresponding to the current working temperature area. Out of this range, the
accuracy of the measured heat on the display may not be right.
Adjust the heating drum temperature by pressing the temperature adjustment keys.
Refer to
Operation panel on page 34
To preserve the machine and avoid any damage on the felt belt, the maximum set
temperature is limited at 220°C (428°F).
Recommended working temperature: 215°C (419°F).
It is important to adapt the speed adjustment (heat exposure contact time) in accordance with
the machine features. If temperature decreases too much while transferring, increase the
working temperature or the heat exposure contact time.
The right combination of speed and heat on the machine will enable you to reach your
expected quality level.
It is recommended to increase the set temperature by 10-15°C above the working
temperature in order to compensate possible loss of heat caused by thermal exchanges
between the media and the heating drum.
While heating up the machine, let the drum spin at the "SLOW" speed. This heating speed will
provide a homogeneous spread of the temperature in the heating drum and will help to reach
the set working temperature faster.
