PRIOR ART Devices have already been proposed that issue audible warnings depending on the mode when a copying machine malfunctions or malfunctions. However, this type of warning is a single voice warning, and as the frequency of warning occurrence increases, it causes discomfort to the operator, and since the warnings have the same content, no further information can be provided. In order to solve these drawbacks, for example, if you try to output audio to notify all information from the beginning, it will take time to output all the contents, and the amount of information at one time will be large, making it difficult for the operator to There are problems such as getting confused when the message returns.

A signal is obtained to check for failure. Reference numeral 5 denotes a control board, in which a CPU and memory are arranged, which checks the input signals from the detection elements 1 to 4, judges abnormalities and failures, and classifies them. to store the data. In addition, the control board 5 compares the data of the abnormalities and failure modes that have occurred up to that point stored in the memory with the abnormalities and failure modes at that point, and outputs the results. Select the content of the audio warning to be issued. The content of the audio warning selected by the control board 5 is sent to the audio board 6 as selection data. The audio board 6 outputs audio in response to the sent selection data using an audio output device 7, such as a speaker, to alert the operator. Further, 8 is data input means such as sensor input and key input, and 9 is data output means such as SOL, motor, power pack, CL, etc.

In step S1 , the control board 5 determines whether a fixing jam has occurred based on detection signals from the detection elements 1 to 4. Next, following the flow of "YES", proceed to step S2 and store the jam data in the memory. Next, in step S3 , the fixing jam data in the memory is retrieved and its frequency of occurrence is checked. If it is determined that the occurrence frequency is low, proceed to step S 4 according to the flow of "YES",
At this point, the CPU sends a message to the audio board saying, “Fixed jam.”
Send the output data of If it is determined in step S 3 that the frequency of occurrence is not low, follow the flow of "NO" and proceed to step S 5 .
Proceed to Step S 6, and then determine whether the frequency of occurrence is medium or not. If it is medium, follow the flow of ``YES'' and proceed to step S 6 , where the CPU sends a message from the audio board to the audio board saying ``Fixed jam.Silicon.'' Please check the oil.” output data is sent. If it is determined in step S5 that the frequency of occurrence is not moderate, follow the flow of "NO" and proceed to step S7 , where the CPU sends a message from the audio board saying "Fixed jam. This is an abnormality, so please call a service person." Send the output data of ”.

るようにしてもよい。 Note that the audio content does not have to be particularly as described above, but the output content must be changed depending on the frequency of occurrence. In other words, if fixing jams occur infrequently, a light warning output will be issued, if the frequency of occurrence is moderate, a voice will be output to urge the machine to be checked, and if the jams will occur frequently, a strong warning will be output to the extent that a service person will be called. is necessary. Also, the above
It is also possible to connect a display device to the CPU so that the selected data sent from the CPU is outputted as audio and displayed at the same time. In other words, in case of abnormal operation, failure mode is jam, abnormal operation, failure mode is from toner near end to toner end, or abnormal operation, failure mode is from fixing silicon oil near end to end, etc., the contents are output as audio. The information may be displayed on the display at the same time as the information is displayed.

If the occurrence frequency increases to a certain extent, the operator is prompted to take precautions such as checking the machine, and if the occurrence frequency increases further, it is determined that it is better not to use the machine. In such a case, the operator can be prompted to take steps such as calling a serviceman, and the operator can be made to take appropriate steps depending on the frequency of occurrence of the abnormal operation or failure.
