The machine is equipped with a fixing inlet sensor to prevent paper from remaining inside the fixing assembly. The output of the sensor is used to move a lift mech-
anism, thereby making sure paper movement will not be disrupted.
Fixing inlet lift motor
Lifting timing
- When the power is turned on
- When a jam is detected
Moving-down status
- At stand-by
- At operation
Fixing inlet sensor PS63
<Paper Detection>
If paper is detected while the fixing inlet sensor is
moving up, the machine will indicate the presence
of a fixing inlet residual paper jam.
Reference:
