Down sequence is to prevent the machine from operating when the temperature of the end portion of the fixing film exceeds a specific temperature as when using
small-size paper continuously. The details of the control are described below:
1. The sub thermistor detection temperature is 275 deg C or more.
2. Reduces the number of sheets passed by increasing the paper interval.
3. Returns the number of sheets to the normal when the sub thermistor detection temperature is 265 deg C or less.
9.3 Various Control Mechanisms
9.3.1 Controlling the Speed of the Fixing Film
9.3.1.1 Controlling the Fixing Film Speed in Response to Low Temperature

As in the morning, driving the fixing film in a low-temperature environment without warm-up could cause the film to become displaced. In consideration of this
fact, the fixing motor is started up in phases (1/4 speed to 1/2 speed and then to normal speed).

The rotation cycle of the fixing film is monitored to control the fixing motor to a specific speed.
When the fixing film rotates and, as a result, the reflecting member positioned in the loop of the film approaches the speed sensor, the machine detects the rotation
of the fixing film.

Timing of Control
The speed of fixing film rotation is monitored at all times after the fixing motor goes on and its speed reaches a specific value. The speed of the fixing motor is then
controlled so that it remains at a specific level at all times.
9.3.2 Controlling the Fixing Film Temperature

In a low temperature environment, the heater is supplied with power before the fixing film is driven so as to soften the grease applied to the fixing film. The mech-
anism of control is as follows:
If the temperature of the fixing film detected by the thermistor is lower than a specific level, the heater is supplied with power for a specific period of time before
a normal start-up mechanism is initiated.
If the temperature of the fixing film detected by the thermistor is higher than a specific level, the normal start-up mechanism is imitated.
9.3.2.2 Controlling the Feeding in Response to Low Temperature

In a low temperature environment, the feeding timing is changed according to the temperature detected by the environment sensor so as to enhance the fixing ca-
pability. The details are described below.
When the environment sensor detection temperature is 13 deg C or less, the feeding timing is delayed by 5000 msec.
In thick paper mode, the feeding timing is not changed even if the environment sensor detection temperature is 13 deg C or less.
9.3.2.3 Controlling the Power Supply at Start-Up

When the thermistor detection temperature is 180 deg C or less, the power control to compensate for the heater, (varying according to input voltage and a heater
resistor value) is performed so as to raise the temperature of the fixing unit to the required temperature for fixing in a short time.
