After the toner image is transferred to the paper [A], it goes through the fusing unit. The fusing
unit contains the heating roller [B]. The heating lamp [C] applies heat to the heat roller. The
heat roller applies heat to the fusing belt [D] to melt the toner on the paper. The paper
receives pressure between the fusing belt and the pressure roller [E], and melted toner
bonds to the paper.
When the paper goes out of the fusing unit, it goes to the exit tray. The fusing exit sensor [F]
detects paper jams.
