General and Operation Overview

Phaser 7100 Print Process

The Phaser 7100 utilizes a tandem system where each of the colors - Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, and Black

(Y, M, C, K) has its own Imaging Unit and Developer. A toner image for each color is formed on the

Imaging Unit and then transferred to the Intermediate Transfer Belt (Intermediate Transfer Unit). The

toner image of the 4 colors are overlapped on the Intermediate Transfer Belt to form the full-color

print, which is then transferred and fused onto the paper to be output.
