14.3.1
Transfer Mechanism
• A charge is applied to the Image Transfer Roller to transfer the toner image formed on
the surface of the Photo Conductor onto the paper.
• The image transfer current is controlled according to the size and type of paper, B/W
ratio of the original, and whether the copy cycle is 1-sided or 2-sided.
14.3.2
Transfer Roller Cleaning
• To remove any toner left on the surface of the Transfer Roller, a charge of the same
polarity (minus) as the toner is applied to the Transfer Roller. The Transfer Roller is
thereby cleaned of residual toner.
• The Transfer Roller cleaning sequence is carried out when the Front Door or Right Door
is opened and closed.
