2. Set “Fusing Heat Roller Temperature Adj” to 185°C.
3. Print the image. Does it exhibit any fusing problem?
Yes You cannot improve throughput under the present condition. Restore the previous setting.
No You can operate the machine using this setting.
The following table shows the copy/print speed available for each item in “Process Speed Setting”.
Mode Speed/Machine
High (Full Speed) 136 cpm (Pro 8320S/Pro 8320)
111 cpm (Pro 8310S/Pro 8310)
96 cpm (Pro 8300S)
Middle 111 cpm (Pro 8320S/Pro 8320)
Low 96 cpm (Pro 8320S/Pro 8320)
96 cpm (Pro 8310S/Pro 8310)
Reducing Wait Time with Mixed Paper Sizes 1
When using mixed paper, the fusing unit settings can switch to accommodate the different types and
sizes of paper, and this affects the wait time, which can lower productivity. However, depending on how
the client is using the machine, there are occasions when it is best for the client to operate the machine
even when fusing conditions are not exactly ideal. This procedure describes how to check whether the
wait time during jobs with mixed paper can be reduced.
There are three cases when wait time can occur:

Case 1
. For brand name paper where there is a large difference in the heating roller temperature
settings for differences in paper thickness from the previous type of paper used.

Case 2
. For brand name paper where there is a large difference in the heating roller temperature
for differences in paper thickness and width (front-to-rear across the paper path is the width).

Case 3
. Repeated low volume print jobs.
This procedure describes how to reduce the wait time for Case 1 above.
Solution:
1. Are the heating roller temperature settings different for the intervals between different types of
paper?
Yes Go to Step 2.
No
No solution for this machine.
2. Raise the setting for low heating roller temperature paper by +5C. (Upper limit: This is the same as
the as the temperature for high temperature paper.)
3. Do a sample print. Did this reduce the wait time?
Yes Go to Step 4.
No Repeat Step 2.
