2.1.3.5 (5) Cleaning (Drum)

In the Cleaning (Drum) step, the residual toner on the drum surface is
scraped off and the residual charge is cleaned off.


Physical drum cleaning
Toner that is not transferred in the 1st Transfer step remains on the
drum surface. This residual toner is scraped off by the Cleaning
Blade. It is then transported to the Waste Toner Box by the Auger in
the Drum Cartridge.
Chapter 2 Operating Principles


Electrical drum cleaning
An electrical charge still remains on the drum surface after the
residual toner has been scraped off. This residual electrical charge
is removed by the LED beam output from the Erase Lamp
Assembly.
