ABSTRACT:
In an image forming system having fixing rollers for affixing developing material (toner) onto the surface of paper, a paper jam elimination method is disclosed. The method prevents toner stains within the system's interior portions by providing a complete transfer and fixation of toner onto the paper's surface. The method includes the steps of: detecting a paper jam, heating the fixing rollers to a predetermined temperature in response to establishment of a paper jam elimination mode, and eliminating the paper jam after heating the fixing rollers to the predetermined temperature.
