Pressure Release Mechanism

To easily remove the paper in the event of a jam in the fusing unit, a pressure release mechanism is provided.

A pressure lever [C] is released by the drive of the paper exit/pressure release motor (M4) [A], and the pressure roller [D] separates from the fusing belt.

The pressure roller HP sensor (S26) [E] detects the encoder [B] and determines the position of the pressure roller.

After replacing the pressure roller, if the sensor does not detect the encoder 3 times continuously after a job is completed, SC569-00 (Paper Exit/ Pressure Release Motor Error Detection) is generated.
