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

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.
