20. FUSING SECTION
D. Temperature control during stand-by
• Control proceeds to that in the standby state if no print requests are received after the
warm-up cycle.
• The temperature control in the standby state controls to turn ON the fusing heater lamp
so as to ensure that the temperatures of the fusing belt and pressure roller in the standby
state fall within a predetermined temperature range.
• This control is to shorten time required for entering the print mode when a print job is
received.
E. Temperature control during the print cycle
(1) Temperature control
• The machine enters a print state as it receives a print request and carries out a print
cycle at a set temperature corresponding to the type of paper selected for the job. The
fusing temperature is controlled also during the print cycle.
(2) Service Mode
• The fusing temperature adjustment function is provided for preventing image fixability
from being degraded and reducing frequency of occurrence of paper curl, uneven wax,
and offset. These problems are associated with certain types of paper used.
• The fusing temperature can be varied using the setting made in "Machine/ Fusing Tem-
perature" of the service mode. This provides for a wider scope of fusing performance to
meet the diversified needs of the user.
• In the fusing temperature adjustment function, the adjustment is first made on the heat-
ing side; if additional adjustments are still required, the adjustment is to be made on the
pressure side.
