Page 105 PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Overview Waste Toner Area The AIO cartridge contains the OPC drum, development unit, cleaning unit, charge roller, and waste toner disposal area. The toner is mono- component (no carrier). Charge Waste toner from the OPC Roller drum goes to the area at the top of the AIO and is discarded when the AIO is changed.
Page 106 PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Drive The black AIO is driven by the black AIO motor. Gear The three color AIOs are driven by the color AIO motor. In each AIO, a gear transmits drive from the motor to the other gears and rollers in the AIO. No adjustment is needed if you replace the motors.
Page 107 PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Charge Charge roller Drum The charge roller gives the drum a negative charge. Slide 107 The high voltage supply board, which is at the left side of the machine, applies a dc and ac voltage (at a constant current) to the roller. The ac voltage helps to make sure that the charge given to the drum is as constant as possible.
Page 108 PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Cleaning Charge roller The drum and the charge cleaning blades roller both have cleaning blades. They always touch the charge roller. Waste toner from cleaning goes to the toner collection coil. The toner collection coil moves the toner to the waste toner transport belt.
Page 109: Waste Toner Collection
PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Waste Toner Collection - 1 Waste Toner Collection Roller Waste Toner Transport Belt Transport Belt Shaft Waste Toner Collection Coil The waste toner collection coil moves waste toner from the OPC to the right side of the AIO.

Page 143 PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Differences from the Previous Model Stripper Solenoid Cleaning Pawls Roller Hot Roller Main differences: The hot roller has a thin wall. With a thin-wall hot roller, it can be difficult to pull paper off, so stripper pawls are added (the previous model did not have these). A solenoid operates these pawls (see the next slide).
Page 144 PE-MF3/PE-P2 Training Fusing Stripper Pawl The stripper pawls prevent paper from wrapping around the hot roller. The fusing stripper pawl solenoid detaches the stripper pawl from the hot roller until contact is necessary. This is to prevent stripper pawl lines from appearing in the printed image and to prevent the hot roller surface from being damaged.
