The main motor [A] drives the fusing unit through a train of gears.
The fusing unit drive release mechanism automatically disengages the fusing
unit drive gear [B] when the front cover [C] is opened. This allows the fusing
unit drive gear to rotate freely so that misfed paper can be easily removed.
When the front cover is opened, the actuator plate [D] pulls release wire [E].
The release wire pulls the fusing unit gear bracket [F] upward and the fusing
unit drive is disengaged.
