System components

The laser

A laser is used to create an invisible image on the photoreceptor. The electronic master of a job communicates instructions to the laser, causing the laser to switch on and off to create the image.

The fuser agent reservoir

Fuser agent is used to prevent paper that is passing through the fuser from sticking to the fuser roll. Fuser agent is contained in the fuser agent reservoir. When directed by a message on the controller, you must add fuser agent to the reservoir.

For fuser agent replacement, refer to the "Routine maintenance" chapter.

The inverter (duplex tray)

When 2-sided prints are made, the side one image is put on the paper first. The paper with the side one image is then moved to the duplex inverter, where the paper is turned over. The paper then moves through the paper path again to have the side two image applied.

The decurler lever

Too much curl in paper can cause paper handling problems. Adjusting the decurler lever should correct most of the curl problems.

For the decurler lever adjustments, refer to the "Routine maintenance" chapter.

The ground fault protector

Some processors are equipped with a ground fault protector. This device is located on the back panel of the processor. The device has circuit breakers associated with it. When the device senses an electrical fault in the processor, it will shut off the processor power. If your processor has more than one power cord, there will be a ground fault protector for each power cord.
