allowing the visible, developed image on the surface of the transfer belt to
be transferred onto the paper.
• The paper, which has undergone the 2nd image transfer process, is neu-
tralized so that it can be properly separated from the transfer belt by the
paper separator claws.
• Residual toner on the surface of the transfer belt is collected for cleaning
by cleaning blade.
• The residual toner left on the surface of the PC drum is scraped off.
• The surface of the PC drum is irradiated with light, which neutralizes any
surface potential remaining on the surface of the PC drum.
