• Fixing temperature control in environmental mode
The fixing control temperature is changed as follows during environmental mode or
depending on the status of the copier.
• Environmental mode
1. Low temperature mode: The external temperature is below 20°C/68°F.
2. Normal temperature mode: The external temperature is 20°C/68°F or above.
• Copier’s status
1. Standby
2. Start of copying: from the start of copying to the 10th copy count
3. During copying: 11th copy count and after
Table 1-3-3 Fixing control temperature
• Fixing temperature control in preheat/energy saving mode
During preheat/energy saving mode, the fixing heater (H) is turned on and off to keep the
fixing temperature at 100°C/212°F. Operation after the preheat/energy saving mode is
exited depends on the temperature mode. If the copier is in normal temperature mode,
copying is enabled when the fixing temperature reaches 170°C/338°F without performing
stabilization drive control. In low temperature mode, stabilization drive control takes place
and copying is enabled when the fixing temperature reaches 185°C/356°F. The fixing
control temperature during preheat/energy saving mode can be changed in simulation 47.
