Image Formation System

Overview

■ Overview
Image formation system of this machine uses the non-magnetic 2-component AC developing
method for developing and the intermediate transfer method for transferring to form toner
images.
To increase life of the Image Formation Unit, this machine uses the primary transfer
disengagement method.
This machine accomplished features such as space-saving and low initial cost while
maintaining the basic specifications of iRC3380 / 2880 series. To enable such features, there
is no Drum Cleaner with this machine and toner is fed to the upward direction.
The following shows major improved points compared to the previous iRC3880 / 2880 series:
Feature:
Low initial cost Self-manufacturing of the parts. Less parts
Space-saving Upward feeding of toner and the machine is designed without a
Drum Cleaner
Reduced downtime Adjustment of execution time and timing for each control
Serviceless The ITB and the Drum Unit can be replaced with screw-less
