6.13 DRUM CLEANING AND TONER RECYCLING
• Cleaning blade [A] scrapes remaining toner
from the drum after image transfer. Toner
piles up on the blade.
• Toner collect coil [B] transports toner from
pile and drops it onto chute [C], where it
slides down into the development unit
through a slit located at [D].
• At the end of each copy job, the drum turns
about 3 mm in reverse to help clear toner
and other debris from the edge of the
cleaner blade.
