CHAPTER 2
A positive charge applied to the back of the paper attracts the negatively charged toner particles
to the paper.
Roller transfer method is applied to stabilize the paper feed and to reduce ozone generation.
Step 5: Separation
The elasticity of the paper causes it to separate from the drum.
To stabilize the paper feed system and prevent droplets on the printed image at low temper-
ature and humidity, the charge on the back of the paper is reduced by the static charge elimi-
nator.
4. Fixing block
As the toner image transferred onto the paper in the transfer block is adhered only by electro-
static attraction, even a light touch will smear the image.
The toner particles are fused to the paper to make an permanent image by applying pressure
and heat to the paper and the toner.
Step 6: Fixing
