*5 Jam detection
When a jam occurs in the paper exit section in
the fixing unit, the jammed paper presses down
the actuator, causing the fixing jam sensor (PS3)
to detect a jam via the jam detection plate and
actuator operation.

*6 Thick paper conveyance
When a thick paper is fed, the fixing guide
solenoid (SD3) installed on the ADU side is turned
ON and the thick paper conveyance auxiliary plate
installed at the inlet of the fixing unit is pressed
down via the arm, thus improving transportability
of thick paper.
