2.8.2 Various Control Mechanisms
2.8.2.1 Fixing Temperature Control
2.8.2.1.1 Fixing Temperature Control
The fixing temperature control is to keep the fixing heater in the fixing film unit to the specified temperature.
The engine controller monitors the fixing heater temperature detection signal (FSRTH) and outputs the fixing heater drive signal (FSRD) according to the detected
temperature.
The fixing heater drive PCB controls the fixing heater according to this signal to keep the fixing heater temperature within the target values.
