Specifications

20-1. Transport Section
•
Rotation of Suction Fan Motor M18 results in the paper separated from the
PC Drum being drawn onto the turning Suction Belts. As a result, the paper
is smoothly carried to the Fusing Unit.
•
The Suction Belts are turned by the Suction Belt Drive Roller which is
driven by Fusing Motor M6. (For the timing at which M6 is energized and
deenergized, see p. M-168.)
•
Four rubber belts are used as the Suction Belts. There are small holes in
each belt to enhance the drawing power of M18. Further, each belt has a
rough surface which prevents slippage during paper transport.
