(11-2-1) Temperature increase of fuser unit
Thermostat, Heater of the fuser unit is controlled of its
halogen lamp temperature. Check if the fuser unit gets hot or
not by touching it with hands.
If the fuser unit temperature does not increase
and remains cold, check that the resistance
between pin-1 and pin-2, and that in between
pin-3 and pin-4 of the two connectors is in the
range of several ohms to several ten ohms
respectively. (Refer to section 8.1 Resistance
value (fuser unit).)
