6.10.9 TRAY LOCK MECHANISM 
This machine has two types  of tray lock mechanism. 
Tray Lock at the Front 
 
The lock at the front prevents the tray from coming out of the machine during transporting 
or shipping. When you pull the handle [A], the lock lever [B] is lowered. As a result, you can 
pull out the tray. 
Tray Lock at the Rear 
 
This mechanism is only activa ted when the machine detects a paper jam. The lock at the 
rear prevents the tray from...

The lock lever [B] locks tray 1 [C] and tray 2 [D].   
6.10.10 PAPER  DUST  COLLECTION 
 
The two mylars [A] scrape the paper dust from the registration idle roller [B]. The paper 
dust falls down into the paper dust container [C]. 
6.10.11 BY-PASS PAPER SEPARATION 
 
When the paper set sensor detects paper and  the machine gets a by-pass printing job, the 
by-pass solenoid [A] unlocks the feed shaft  stopper at the front end of the by-pass feed 
shaft [B].   
The by-pass feed...

The by-pass tray has the separation pad sy stem. The by-pass feed roller and separation 
pad [F] feed the top sheet of paper stack. 
6.10.12 BY-PASS PAPER SIZE DETECTION 
 
There are two paper side plates [A] on the by-p ass tray. These connect with the paper size 
sensor [B] through a rack-and-pinion mechanism.

ƒ  Temperature is normally controlled by turning the fusing lamps on and off.   
ƒ  The lubricant roller supplies a small amount of oil to the pressure roller through the 
cleaning roller. An oil supply unit is not nec essary because the amount of oil supplied 
to the pressure roller is small.

Belt and Rollers 
The fusing/paper exit motor drives the pressu re roller [A] and the fusing roller [B] through 
the gear train,...

6.11.3  PRESSURE RELEASE MECHANISM 
 
The pressure levers [A] put the proper pressu re to the nip between the pressure roller [B] 
and fusing belt [C]. When releasing these levers , the pressure roller moves away from the 
fusing belt. If a paper jam occurs in the fusi ng unit, releasing these levers make jammed 
paper easily removed.

Fusing Temperatures 
When the main switch turns on, the CPU turn s on the fusing lamp. The lamp stays on until 
the thermistor detects the st andby temperature. Then the CPU  raises the temperature to 
the printing temperature. 
The fusing temperature for each mode is as  follows. These are set by SP 1105.

6.11.5 ENERGY SAVER MODES 
Overview 
 
When the machine is not being used, the  energy saver function reduces power 
consumption by dec reasing the fusing temperature. 
This machine has the following tw o types of energy saver modes: 
1. Panel-off mode  
2.  Auto Off mode 
These modes are controlled by the following UP and SP modes: 
ƒ  Panel off timer: User Tools – System  Settings – Timer Setting – Panel Off Timer
