A controlling method of a copying machine

Abstract

Abstract In a copying machine comprising a fusing device (5) which, by rotating a heating roller (53) and a press roller (54) in a mutually forcible contact, fuses a toner image on the copying paper (P) passing through the rollers (53) (54) and which is controlled to the wait-reset state capable of the copying operation and the wait state incapable of the copying operation in accordance with the conditions of the fusing device (5), a method for controlling the copying machine is established in such a way to set it in the wait-reset state after passing a certain fixed period of time after heating the heating roller (53) to a temperature T 3 higher than a setting temperature T 2 for fusing in the initial starting stage, and, after passing the initial starting stage, to raise the temperature from the low setting temperature T 1 in the wait state to bring it up to the setting temperature T 2 for fusing, and setting the wait-reset state even before reaching the setting temperature for fusing, but reaching it without fail when the edge of the copying paper (P) reaches the fusing device (5).
