Theory of Operation Printing Process The Phaser 6180MFP print process consists of the following steps: Charging – The Drum surfaces are charged with electricity. Exposure – The Drums are exposed to laser beams. Development – Image is developed with toner.
The Drum surface is a photoreceptor (which is an insulator in a dark area and a conductor when receiving light) and the Drum inside is composed of conductor. The BCR Cleaner contacts with the BCR to catch the toner. Photoreceptor Conductor Cleaning Roll Drum HVPS s6180mfp-030 Phaser 6180MFP Multifunction Printer Service Manual...
