SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS Read carefully the Safety and Important Warning Items described below to understand them before doing ser- vice work. IMPORTANT NOTICE Because of possible hazards to an inexperienced person servicing this copier as well as the risk of damage to the copier, Minolta Corporation strongly recommends that all servicing be performed only by Minolta-trained ser- vice technicians.
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS SAFETY WARNINGS MODIFICATIONS NOT AUTHORIZED BY MINOLTA Minolta copiers are renowned for their high reliability. This reliability is achieved through high-quality design and a solid service network. Copier design is a highly complicated and delicate process where numerous mechanical, physical, and electrical aspects have to be taken into consideration, with the aim of arriving at proper tolerances and safety factors.

IMAGE CREATION PROCESS CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 6. IMAGE CREATION PROCESS Image creation flow and function Step Process Function Step 1 Charging process Forms the layer of charges on the photosensitive drum. Step 2 Laser exposure process Form an electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive drum.
CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 IMAGE CREATION PROCESS Charging process (Step 1) The charging corona, having a gold-plated tungsten wire, is applied with a high DC voltage (minus) to neg- atively charge the surface of the photosensitive drum by wire discharge. The charging corona is provided with a charging control plate to make charges on the surface of the photosensitive drum uniform.
IMAGE CREATION PROCESS CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 Developing process (Step 3) In the electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive drum, the non-image section is negatively charged and the image section is neutralized. When toner, that is, negatively charged is brought close to the photo- sensitivity drum, toner is attracted to the image section on the drum by the potential difference with the developing bias and becomes visible.
CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 IMAGE CREATION PROCESS 1st transfer process (Step 4) Toner on each drum of Y, M, C and K is transferred onto the transfer belt, this allows for overlapping of the colors. This movement of toner from the drum to the transfer belt is referred to as the 1st transfer, where the transfer of toner is carried out sequentially in the order of Y, M, C and K.
IMAGE CREATION PROCESS CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 2nd transfer process (Step 5) The operation to transfer the toner image of the four colors on the transfer belt to paper is referred to as the 2nd transfer. While in the 2nd transfer, the 2nd transfer roller /L provided at the lower section of the transfer belt conveys paper while pressing it against the transfer belt.
CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 IMAGE CREATION PROCESS Drum cleaning (Sub step 1) A drum that has completed the 1st transfer has a residual amount of toner that is left from the transfer pro- cess. The process to remove toner is referred to as drum cleaning.
IMAGE CREATION PROCESS CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 6.10 Transfer belt cleaning (Sub step 3) A transfer belt that has completed the 2nd transfer has a residual amount of toner that is left from the trans- fer process. The process to remove toner is referred to as a transfer belt cleaning.
CF5001 Ver.1.0 Sep. 2003 IMAGE CREATION PROCESS 6.12 Toner collection (Sub step 5) Toner that was cleaned in the drum cleaning section and the transfer belt cleaning section is collected into the toner collection box through the toner collection screw.
