Temperature Control Mode2.
This mode goes to mode 3 after 208 seconds. The temperature of the fusing
roller decreases gradually approximately from 185
°
C to 175
°
C.
Temperature Control Mode3.
This mode controls the temperature to maintain 175
°
C during printing and
105
°
C during waiting mode. Unless the upper cover is opened or error
happens, this mode is maintained.

2.1.9.3 Prevention of paper bent from the fusing
Sometime the paper ejected from the fusing is bent in wave shape. The
reason why this happens is that the temperature around the fusing roller is
not even. In order to prevent this, the printer rotates the half circle after the
printer receives the printing order, and makes the temperature around the
fusing roller even.
