Warm-up mode
After power ON, Fusing warm-up begins. The fusing motor (M8) is switched ON, the halogen heater is energized, and the fusing temperature is increased to the "reload target temperature."
When fusing warm-up is completed, the fusing motor (M8) is switched ON for a certain time, and the fusing temperature is maintained at the "reload target temperature".
Standby mode
After fusing reload, when a certain time has elapsed, power supply to the halogen heater is switched OFF, and the fusing motor (M8) is switched OFF. At the same time, the temperature is maintained at the "standby target temperature (SP1-107-001)" by the halogen heater.
In standby mode, the fusing motor (M8) rotates once every 60 minutes.
The operation interval of the fusing motor (M8) can be changed by SP1-122-001 (Standby Rotation Setting Rotation Interval) but the change may cause the uneven glossiness on the image.
Printing ready mode
After returning to standby mode, the halogen heater is re-energized, and the fusing temperature is raised to the "printing ready target temperature." If printing is not required, the machine again enters the standby mode after a certain time has elapsed.
If printing is required in standby mode during return, the halogen heater is energized, the fusing temperature is increased to "target temperature after reload/after paper feed," and the print job starts.
In printing ready mode, the shield is at the home position.
