Paper Discharging Process

In the paper discharging process, the paper, with the image

transferred, is separated from the transfer drum by applying an AC

charge to the paper. See

for paper discharge location.

The AC charger unit, consisting of a case and charger wire, has high

alternating voltage (VAC) injected into it.

During the transfer process, paper adheres to the transfer drum. The

paper is then neutralized (discharged) by injecting the alternating

voltage generated by the discharger. Paper is then separated from

the transfer drum and moves into the fusing process.
