2. Turning ON/OFF the Static Eliminator Bias/Fixing BiasThe DC controller generates the static eliminator/fixing roller bias ON command(SFON*) to turn on and off the static eliminator bias and the fixing roller bias.• When the static eliminator bias/fixing roller bias is on,SFON*=0→The remote circuit turns on.→The AC drive circuit turns on.→The high-voltage transformer turns on. (static eliminator bias/fixingroller bias output)When the high-voltage transformer turns on, a voltage of about 3.0 kV is applied tothe static eliminator and a voltage of about 740 V is applied to the upper fixing roller.• When the static eliminator bias/fixing roller bias is OFF,SFON*=1→The remote circuit turns off.→The AC drive circuit turns off.→The high-voltage transformer turns off.Reference:The copier uses a conductive upper fixing roller so that residual charges on copypaper flow through the roller when the paper moves through the fixing assembly,causing toner to spread over the image if not remedied.To prevent such a problem, a positive bias is applied to the fixing roller duringcopying operation.3. Switching the Output of the Static Eliminating BiasCopy paper comes to possess high resistance once it has moved through the fixingassembly. In automatic two-sided mode, therefore, the DC controller PCB generates thestatic eliminator voltage level switch command (SPCH) to turn on the high-voltagetransformer, thereby applying static eliminator bias (about 4.0 kV) to the static eliminator.4. Preventing Separation Faults (thin paper picked up from the multifeeder)If separation faults occur when copying on thin paper picked up from the multifeeder,the voltage applied to the static eliminator may be kept at about 4.0 kV at all times so asto facilitate separation of paper from the drum.
