2nd Transfer Roller cleaning

• DC positive and negative transfer bias voltages are alternately applied to the 2nd Trans-
fer Roller. This allows toner residue on the surface of the 2nd Transfer Roller to be trans-
ferred back to the Transfer Belt, thus cleaning the 2nd Transfer Roller.
• The toner transferred back to the Transfer Belt is collected by the Cleaning Blade.
