2.4.6.3 Fusing Temperature Control
FUSING TEMPERATURE CONTROL CIRCUIT
The resistance of the thermistor (TH) mounted on the fusing roller varies with temperature,
particularly, lowers as temperature rises. The output from the thermistor (TH) is input to the
analog port of the CPU of the control circuit.
As temperature rises and the resistance of the thermistor (TH) lowers, the voltage input to
the analog port lowers.
The CPU monitors the output from the thermistor and turns on and off power to the heater
to control the temperature of the Fusing Roller.
To turn on the fusing roller heater lamp (H1), the CPU turns the heater remote output signal
“ON (L)”. By turning the heater remote output signal “ON (L)”, the triac of the DC
regulated power supply is turned on and the AC voltage is applied to the fusing heater
lamp(H1) to heat the heater.
If the temperature of the Fusing Roller is too high, the too-high temperature detection
circuit operates to stop forcibly the current to the fusing heater lamp (H1).
FUSING TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The fusing roller heater lamp (H1) inside the Fusing Roller and the pressure roller heater
lamp (H2) execute temperature control as described below.
The surface temperature of the Fusing Roller is converted to an electric signal by the
thermistor (TH1) for detection.
WARM-UP CONTROL
The preset temperature for warming up is 170
°
C.
Once the temperature of the Fusing Roller has reached the preset level, the fusing roller
heater lamp and pressure roller heater lamp are turned off.
STANDBY TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT CONTROL
The preset temperature for standby is 171
°
C.
PRINTING TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT CONTROL (DURING
MONOCHROME PRINTING)
The preset temperature for printing is as indicated in Table below:
