    COPY PROCESS OVERVIEW August, 2006 6.3 COPY PROCESS OVERVIEW B132D001.WMF This machine has four PCUs in a straight line: Y, M, C, K. The ITB lift motor raises and lowers the ITB unit. The ITB lift motor raises ITB for full-color copying. The drum of every PCU contacts the ITB below.
  • Page 727 August, 2006 COPY PROCESS OVERVIEW B132D984.WMF Here is a general description of the copy process in the black PCU. These mechanisms are identical in each PCU (Y, C, M, K). 1. DRUM CHARGE In the dark, the charge roller gives a negative charge to the drum. The charge stays on the surface of the drum because the OPC layer has a high electrical resistance in the dark.
  • Page 728 COPY PROCESS OVERVIEW August, 2006 4. DRUM POTENTIAL SENSOR The drum potential sensor in each PCU detects the drum potential. Changes in conditions near the drum (heat, humidity, drum condition) change the drum potential. The machine uses the output from this sensor to adjust the voltages that are used during auto process control.
