Troubleshooting Tips
1. Turn the machine off then back on. Sudden power outages or a weak heating element can cause this problem. Turning off then on again while it’s still hot can sometimes get it up to the correct operating temp. If you see this happen more than two or three times in a few week period then the fuser probably is on its way out.
2. Check your power source. Make sure it is plugged straight into a wall outlet and no battery back up or power strip. check for 120v.
3. Remove fuser and check connections and visible signs of extreme wear.
4. Turn the machine off, unplug, let it sit 20 to 30 minutes, then try again.
