If any of the following conditions are detected, the printer indicates a fuser error:
1. If the thermistor detects the temperature has not risen by 20º C for 50 msec. within 12 to 30 sec.
after warm up. (This error applies only when the thermistor detects a temperature of 90º C (194º F)
or less.)
2. If the thermistor detects that the temperature has not reached 172º C (342º F) within 60 sec. after
warm up.
3. Except in pause mode (see the note below), if the thermistor detects that the temperature in the
idle state has fallen to 80º C (176º F) or lower for 50 msec., or the temperature during printing has
fallen to 133º C (271º F) or lower.
4. The thermistor detects that the temperature has exceeded 193º C (379º F) for 50 msec. during
temperature control.
Note: In Pause Mode, the control temperature is decreased to save power in the idle state, the
heater lamp is turned OFF.
Thermo fuse TF1 cuts power if the temperature of the fusing section rises to an abnormally high level (over
200° C, 392° F).
2.1.2.4 Scanner Motor Control
Figure 2-16 is the scanner motor (M2) control circuit. The scanner motor is driven while it receives the
POLYGON CTL signal. Motor rotation speed is 8622 rpm.
If the any of following conditions are detected, the printer indicates a scanner motor error:
1. The SSCAN signal has not been given once within 1 sec. after the scanner motor is energized.
2. The number of scanner motor rotations has not stabilized within ± 0.5 rpm by 4.2 sec. after the
motor is energized.
3. The number of scanner motor rotations has exceeded ± 3% for more than 0.5 sec. after the motor
is energized, even if the rotation number stabilizes within ± 0.5 rpm.
