Abstract

Release Agent Management system for a heat and pressure fuser for fixing black toner images in low and high volume imaging machines and also for fixing color images. An auxiliary oil supply is provided for applying extra oil to an oil impregnated web. The extra oil improves fuser roll release life in every application. Also, enables color fusing which requires higher oil application rates.
