13.2 Operation

The fuser roller is pressed with the spring force from the pressure roller side, and is rotated by the main motor drive. Then the paper transported to the fuser unit is hold between the fuser roller and pressure roller and the toner is fused on the paper with heat and pressure. After this, the separation fingers separate the paper from the fuser roller or pressure roller. Then the paper is transported to the receiving tray, paper exiting options or ADU through the exit roller. In addition, the IH coil in the fuser roller does not structurally rotate.

The thermistors control the temperature of fuser roller and detect temperature abnormalities. If the temperature becomes excessively high, the thermostat is opened to stop the power supply to the IH coil.
