Checks
Execute service mode '412' (error clear) to
1
clear E000. Open the front door and the top
unit, and let the fixing roller cool sufficiently.
Turn off the power switch, and disconnect
and then connect the power plug.
Turn on the power switch. Does the fixing
heater turn on?
Caution:
Do not repeat the steps without cooling
the fixing roller sufficiently, or abnormal
increase in the fixing temperature will
damage the fixing roller and the
separation claw.
Turn off the power switch, and let the fixing
2
roller cool sufficiently. Turn on the power
switch, and select service mode '109' (fixing
main thermistor detection temperature

(After the check, be sure to turn off the
power switch.)
Turn off the power switch, and let the fixing
3
roller cool sufficiently. Turn on the power
switch, and select service mode '110' (fixing
