6.4.6 CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE FUSING NIP WIDTH
NOTE: 1) Wait five minutes or longer after completion of warm-up before starting
the steps below.
2) Put one transparency (long edge feed) in the by-pass feed table.
1. Enter engine SP mode. Select Nip Width mode.
2. Wait until the transparency is ejected. For each of the three altered bands,
measure the width at 10 mm from both the right and left ends and at the center.
If the widths of the altered bands fluctuate at small intervals, measure the
narrowest width near the three points above.
3. Obtain an average of the right and left widths of the three bands. Check that
the average meets the following standard.
