3.2 Temperature Control

The machine uses the following methods to control the fixing temperature:
State
[1] Power-on sequence
[2] Model-specific se-
quence
[3] Ambient tempera-
ture sequence
[4] Down sequence
(text mode)
Normal [5] Down sequence
halftone mode (other
than text mode)
[6] Edge overheating
prevention mode
[7] Jam recovery mode
[8] Power save mode
[9] Wait time reduction
mode
[10] Priority on fixing
mode
[11] Priority on produc-
Setting in tivity mode
service [12] Thick paper mode
mode (120/230-V model
only)
[13] Special paper mode

Item
Used if the fixing roller is 75°C or lower at power-
on.
Used to suit the rated voltage of the model (100 V
or 120/230 V).
Used as follows depending on the machine inside
temperature detected by the environment sensor: if
18°C or more, H mode; if between 12°C and 18°C,
M mode; if less than 12°C, L mode.
Used to prevent faulty fixing in continuous printing
mode.
Used to prevent faulty fixing of halftone images in

Used to prevent overheating of the edges of the fix-
ing roller when small-size paper is used.
Used if transfer paper is in the fixing/feeding unit
in the presence of a jam.
Used to decrease the control temperature, thus sav-
ing on power consumption.
Used to decrease the print start temperature by
15°C to reduce print time; for iR5000, 4 min or
less; for iR6000, 1 min or less.
Used to switch the down sequence temperature; in-
creases the fixing temperature by 10°C.
Used to switch the down sequence temperature; de-
creases the fixing temperature by 10°C.
Used to increase the fixing temperature at the start
of printing to 203°C or higher to improve fixing
(after power-on, 211°C in M/L mode).
Used to hold printing unit if the fixing temperature
reaches 180°C for special paper.
