Pre-Fixing Feeding - Canon 1000 Service Manual

F. Pre-Fixing Feeding
The pre-fixing feeding assembly moves paper which has been separated by the separation charging
assembly to the fixing assembly.
The drive roller in the pre-fixing feeding assembly uses the drive of the pre-fixing feeding motor (M11) to
rotate two feeding belts to move paper. To improve paper movement, the pre-fixing feeding fan (FM7) is used
to keep copy stable on the belt from behind the feeding belt.
The feeding speed is switched over six steps to suit the fixing speed, thereby ensuring proper fixing
when making two-sided copies or when copying on transparencies. (For feeding speed, see chapter 3. G.
Fixing/Delivery Assembly, 7-a. "Controlling the Feeding Speed.")
