COMPOSITION/
OPERATION
D.
Control start decision
Either of the following two control start decisions is made according to the temperature
detected by the temperature/humidity sensor. The fusing temperature during the print
cycle varies depending on the type of the start control carried out, either low temperature
start control or ordinary start control.
17.3.2
Wait control
Control is provided to ensure that the temperatures at different parts of the fusing unit
reach a constant level during the wait state.
A.
Control start timing
At the end of the warm-up control
At the end of the post-print cycle control (print start control)
B.
Control termination timing
The front cover is opened and closed.
A malfunction or media misfeed occurs.
17.3.3
Print control
To ensure a good fixing level and light transmission performance of the OHP transparen-
cies, the fusing speed and fusing roller temperature are controlled.
A.
Control start timing
A print request is received.
B.
Control termination timing
A malfunction or media misfeed occurs.
C.
Print control temperatures
The fusing roller temperature is set according to the type of media, main body interior
temperature (as measured by the temperature/humidity sensor), and warm-up start deci-
sion.
For types of media other than plain paper, the fusing speed is controlled at the 1/2
speed.
D.
Print control temperature adjustments
The temperature during print control is adjusted using the menu available from the con-
trol panel. The temperature can, however, be decreased only.
Adjustment steps are 0

C, -5

Control start decision
Environment upon start
Low temperature start control
The temperature/humidity sensor detects a temperature lower than the
predetermined value.
Ordinary start control
The temperature/humidity sensor detects a temperature equivalent to,
or higher than, the predetermined value.
