The transfer roller [A] touches the surface of the drum [B]. The high voltage supply
board supplies a positive current to the transfer roller, which attracts the toner from
the drum onto the paper. The current depends on the paper width, paper type, and
paper feed tray.
The curvature of the drum and the discharge plate [C] help the paper to separate
from the drum. The discharge plate is grounded.
Drive from the drum through a gear [D] turns the transfer roller.
