CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM

F. Correcting Displacement of the Fixing Film

1. Outline

The fixing film at times becomes displaced toward the front or rear as it keeps turning. To correct such displacement, the copier is equipped with a correction mechanism.

The control is executed by the fixing film sensor (PS9), which detects the position of the film, and the fixing film motor (M4), which physically corrects displacement.

Reference:

If you turn on the power by inserting the door switch actuator into the door switch with the top body of the copier open, E007 will be detected, since the condition prevents the fixing film from turning.
