Abstract:
An imaging device having a fuser and print engine architecture that enables complete interchangeability between fuser types with a common print engine. The imaging device has a frame configured to separately receive a first fuser assembly of a first fuser type and a second fuser assembly of a second fuser type different from the first fuser type. The first fuser assembly includes a first fuser frame having a first datum tab. The second fuser assembly includes a second fuser frame having a second datum tab. The frame of the imaging device has a datum aperture that is sized to receive the first datum tab that when inserted into the datum aperture, causes the first fuser assembly to be positioned at a first operative position, and the second datum tab that when inserted into the datum aperture, causes the second fuser assembly to be positioned at a second operative position.

Claim (Index 12):
The imaging device of  claim 9 , further comprising\n a housing, and an access door on the housing having a media guide member attached thereto, the access door manually movable between a closed position and an open position, the access door substantially forming a first side of the imaging device when in the closed position and permitting access to an interior of the housing when in the open position, wherein each of the first and second fuser frames further includes a fuser nip, an exit roll pair defining an exit nip downstream of the fuser nip in the media feed direction, a pair of guide members positioned downstream of the exit nip in the media feed direction, the pair of guide members interleaving with the media guide member attached to an access door of the imaging device to form an exit media guide surface for receiving fused media exiting the exit nip, and a media sensor for sensing media exiting the fuser nip, wherein the media sensor of the first fuser assembly is disposed upstream of the exit nip of the first fuser assembly in the media feed direction and the media sensor of the second fuser assembly is disposed downstream of the exit nip of the second fuser assembly on one guide member of the pair of guide members of the second fuser assembly.
