5-2 First transfer
The primary image transfer of the image transfer system is a belt image transfer system.
The color toner image created on the OPC drum is created as a visual image on the image transfer belt by overlaying the
colors in the sequence Y, M, C, and K.
• The toner image on the OPC drum applies the image transfer bias that is supplied by HV1 to the electrode roller. It is
drawn onto the image transfer belt for transfer.

5-3 Second transfer
The paper transfer system is a roller transfer system.
The image on the image transfer belt is transferred to the paper when the image transfer bias that is supplied by HV2 is
applied to the image transfer roller. The electric load remaining on the paper is removed when the removal bias that is
supplied by HV2 is applied to the charge removal plate.
