Image Transfer Belt Cleaning
Cleaning roller [N] is positively charged, and transfers this charge to the cleaning
brush [L].
The cleaning brush attracts residual toner from the image transfer belt [C]. This
toner is attracted to the cleaning roller, where it is removed by the cleaning blade
[A].
Waste Toner Collection
The toner removed by the cleaning blade is transported by the toner collection
auger 1 [B] to the rear, where it falls into the toner bottle [I] through the toner
conduit [D].
Toner collection auger 2 [K] levels the toner in the bottle.
There is a shutter on the top of the waste toner bottle. While out of the unit, the
shutter is kept closed by a spring attached to it. When it is put back in the unit, a
hook on top of the shutter is caught by the image transfer belt unit, and the shutter
opens.
Set Switch and Full Sensor
When the bottle is full, a message appears on the operation panel. After this, 100
more prints can be output. Then the machine stops and printing is disabled.
