Function
The transfer/separation charger places
a high positive charge on the paper
which attracts the toner image from
the photoreceptor drum onto the paper
as it passes by. You replace the charger
periodically (at the same time as the
developer cartridge) using the replacement
instructions included in the kit. Between
replacements, you may find it necessary
to clean the corotron wire and saw-tooth
comb on the charger to correct a print
quality problem. See Section 7.1 for
cleaning information.
Rotating the knob clockwise darkens the
print; rotating the knob counterclockwise
lightens the print. See Section 2.8 for
additional information about setting the
print density.
Has a light-sensitive surface used to
produce the latent print image.
CAUTION: The drum should not be
exposed to ambient light for more than 10
minutes, otherwise print degradation may
occur.
You replace the photoreceptor drum at
20K page intervals, using the replacement
instructions included in the kit.
The developer cartridge houses the toner
cartridge. Its function is to transfer the
toner onto the photoreceptor drum and
develop the latent image on the drum.
You replace the developer cartridge at
50K page intervals, using the replacement
instructions included in the kit.
The toner cartridge is inserted into
the developer cartridge and is specially
formulated for the DEClaser 3200 printer.
The toner cartridge lasts approximately
6K pages, and is replaced using the
instructions included in the kit.
