Pressure Release Mechanism

The pressure release mechanism helps the user to remove paper jams from the fusing unit more easily. A
pressure lever [C] is released by the drive of the paper exit/pressure release motor [A], and the
pressure roller [D] separates from the fusing sleeve belt.
The pressure roller HP sensor [E] detects the encoder [B], and determines the position of the pressure
roller.
After replacing the pressure roller, if the sensor does not detect the encoder for 3 times continuously after
a job is completed, SC569-00 (Paper Exit/ Pressure Release Motor Error Detection) is generated.
