6.6.2 FUSING TEMPERATURE CONTROL 
Overall Procedure 
 
The machine starts to warm up the fusing unit to get the print ready condition. When the 
heating roller temperature gets to the idling ready temperature [A], the idling procedure 
starts to warm up the heating roller. The temperature becomes higher than the machine 
ready temperature [B] and gets to the print ready temperature [C] after the heating roller 
completes the idling.   
The temperature increases to the target printing temperature. Then printing starts. If the 
temperature does not get to the target printing temperature before 30 seconds (SP 1104 
22), printing starts. 
The temperature increases to the first print temperature [G] when the first sheet of paper is 
printed, but this is only for the first page.   
After the printing job, the machine turns the heating roller to prevent overheating [F]. You 
can adjust the fusing temperature settings. 
Fusing Roller Idling 
This is done at the following three times: 
1.  Immediately after the power is turned on, or when the machine comes 
back from energy saver mode, if the fusing unit temperature is less than 
100ºC.  
  This is [E] on the diagram. 
  This idling keeps the heating roller warmed up equally while it is heated. This 
temperature is controlled with SP 1912 5, and the durations of fusing idling are 
controlled with SP 1912 6, and 8 to 14 
  You can also adjust this with SP 1912 2 and SP 1105 43
