Switchback control
• When the fusing is completed on the first side of duplex print, switchback snap is
switched down to transport the sheet to the switchback part. When the fusing is com-
pleted on the sheet of single print or second side of duplex print, the sheet is transported
to the exit section.
• The paper transported to the switchback part stops at the switchback position and then
the switchback roller turns around to transport the sheet to the duplex section.
• Before the switchback roller starts to turn the opposite direction, the exit switch gate is
switched to the upward direction.
