Figure 2-1-15 Image resolution Smoothing (KIR) The printer applies the KIR (Kyocera Image Refinement) to the smoothing processing, which is the exclusive image processing technology developed by Kyocera Mita Corporation. This function corrects the jaggy part of image (jagged lines) on slant lines or curves, which is easy to notice, to the smooth line by embedding small dots.
FS-6020 2-1-4 Transfer/separation section Transfer/separation section consists of the transfer roller and separation charger brush. The transfer bias is loaded to the transfer roller by the high voltage output from the engine/high voltage PWB and the toner on the drum is attracted to the transfer roller side due to the electric potential difference and then transferred to the paper.
FS-6020 2-1-5 Cleaning section The cleaning section consists of the following parts and removes the residual toner on the drum after transferring the toner from the drum to the paper and collects it as a waste toner. The eraser light emission removes the residual electrical charge on the drum surface.

FS-6020 2-1-6 Fixing section The fixing section consists of the following parts and fixes the toner that is transferred to the paper at the transfer/ separation section. The paper sent from the transfer/separation section is interleaved between the heat roller and the press roller.
