the transfer belt cleaner scratches off the waste toner on the transfer belt
and the waste toner collecting coil carries waste toner to the waste toner
bottle.
After the printer mid-transferring the toner image on the OPC drum, the
cleaner blade scratches off the waste toner remaining on the OPC drum
and the waste toner collecting coil carries waste toner to the waste toner
bottle.
