EN 4 Theory of operation79 Step 9: roller charging (transfer belt cleaning roller) The transfer belt cleaning roller, to which a dc positive bias is applied, imparts a positive charge to the residual toner on the transfer belt. This positive charge is stronger than the positive charge applied in step 8, so the earlier charge now behaves like a negative charge. Figure 34. Step 9: roller charging (transfer belt cleaning roller)

80Theory of operation C9706-90926 Step 10: transfer belt cleaning A dc positive bias is applied to the transfer belt to produce a difference in potential between the belt and the photosensitive drum. This causes the transfer of the residual toner to the drum. Figure 35. Step 10: transfer belt cleaning

EN 4 Theory of operation81 Step 11: drum cleaning The cleaning blade scrapes the residual toner off of the photosensitive drum, where the waste toner screws collect and deposit the toner into the waste toner case. Figure 36. Step 11: drum cleaning

82Theory of operation C9706-90926 Print cartridge The printer has four print cartridges: yellow, magenta, cyan, and black. Each print cartridge contains a developing cylinder, toner-feed roller, and stirrer. The developer motor rotates these parts, so that each print cartridge can use toner to form a visible image on the drum. The carousel motor rotates the E-label reader, which communicates E-label information to the dc controller. The developing rotary/toner level detection PCB uses an LED (light...

EN 4 Theory of operation83 Imaging-drum E-label The E-label is nonvolatile memory, which is built into the imaging drum and stores usage information. When the imaging drum is installed in the printer, the E-label makes constant contact with the E-label reader. The E-label reader sends memory information to the dc controller, which updates the information and sends it back to the E-label. The dc controller instructs the E-label to read information when: the printer is turned on the top cover is...
