2.2.3 Development Process (Imaging Cartridge)

2.2.3.1 OVERVIEW

The Developer Cartridge and development section are constructed as described below:
This printer employs one-component FMT (Fine Micro Toning) development
method.
Toner in the Developer Cartridge (toner cartridge) is sent into the toner sending
roller area by the toner agitation blade.
Then the toner, through the resin sleeve, is made to stick to the latent image area
produced by exposure to the laser beam on the OPC drum, thus a toner image is
formed.
The Imaging Cartridge consists of the Developer Cartridge (toner cartridge) and
the Photoconductor Unit (Drum Cartridge).
