  • Page 161: Theory Of Operation

    7541-03x Theory of operation Printer engine Electrophotographic Process (EP Process) The method that all laser and LED printers use to print is called the electrophotographic process. These machines use differences in charge to manipulate and move toner from the toner cartridge to the printed page. Even though the basic EP process is the same for every laser and LED printer, the specifics for each printer are different.
  • Page 162: Step 1: Charge

    7541-03x Step 1: Charge During the charge step, voltage is sent from the high-voltage power supply to the charge roller (A) beside each of the four photoconductors. The charge roller is part of the photoconductor unit. The charge roller (A) puts a uniform negative charge over the entire surface of the photoconductor to prepare it for the LED.
  • Page 163: Step 2: Expose

    7541-03x Step 2: Expose During the expose step, the LED exposes the surface of each photoconductor (B) and writes an invisible image called a latent image or electrostatic image for each color. The LED actually discharges the surface only where the beam hits the photoconductor. This creates a difference in charge potential between the exposed area and the rest of the photoconductor surface.
  • Page 164: Step 3: Develop

    7541-03x Step 3: Develop Once the laser exposes the photoconductor, the high-voltage power supply sends charge to the developer roll (C). For each color, the toner cartridge engages the photoconductor so it is in contact with the surface. Because of the charge difference between the toner on the developer roller and the electrostatic image created by the laser, the toner will attract to the photoconductor only where the laser exposed the surface.
  • Page 165: Step 4A: First Transfer

    7541-03x Step 4a: First transfer When the latent images are developed on each Photoconductor, the high-voltage power supply sends voltage to the 1st Transfer Rollers inside the transfer belt unit. The charge difference between the developed toner image on the Photoconductor surface and the 1st Transfer Roller causes the images to transfer to the surface of the transfer belt for each color.
  • Page 166: Step 4B: Second Transfer

    7541-03x Step 4b: Second transfer Once the four planes of color are transferred to the transfer belt from the photoconductors, the image is carried towards the transfer roll. This transfer roll is mounted on the duplex unit. The paper passes between the transfer belt and transfer roll when the image on the belt reaches the second transfer area.
  • Page 167: Step 5: Fuse

    7541-03x Step 5: Fuse Once the image has been fully transferred to the media, the transfer roll helps move the paper into the fuser area. The fuser applies heat and pressure to the page to melt the tiny toner particles and bond them permanently to the media.
  • Page 168: Step 6: Clean/Erase

    7541-03x Step 6: Clean/Erase There are two main cleaning processes that take place during the EP Process. One process cleans the transfer belt, and the other cleans the photoconductors. Transfer Unit Clean Once the toner image on the transfer belt has been transferred to the page, the transfer belt rotates around and is cleaned by the cleaning blade.
  • Page 169: Cleaning Blade

    7541-03x Photoconductor Clean/Erase After each plane of color has been transferred to the transfer belt from the photoconductors, a cleaning blade scrapes the remaining toner from the surface of each photoconductor. This is the clean/erase process. Cleaning blade Now the photoconductor surface is prepared to begin the EP cycle once again. This cleaning/erasing cycle happens after each plane of color is transferred to the transfer belt.
  • Page 170: Paper Path Components

    7541-03x Paper path components Paper feed The standard paper feed sources consist of a multi-paper cassette (Tray 1), a standard paper cassette (Tray 2), and an MPF Tray. The paper feed system on the paper cassettes uses a separation roll/torque limiter to prevent multiple feeds.
  • Page 171 7541-03x Tray 2 and optional trays (3-5) Trays 2 through Tray 5 use a motorized lift mechanism to engage the media in the tray with the pickup roller. Tray 1 holds up to150 sheets of 20 lb. paper and the optional Trays (3-5) can hold up to 500 sheets of 20lb paper.
  • Page 172: Feeding Paper From A Tray

    7541-03x Feeding paper from a tray The printer controller sends a signal to turn on the paper feed clutch; the pick roll grabs the top sheet of paper while the separator roll rotates backwards to prevent multiple sheets of paper from feeding. The paper moves to the feed roll and is fed into the paper path.
  • Page 173: Feeding Paper From The Mpf

    7541-03x Feeding paper from the MPF To start the paper feed, the printer controller sends a signal to turn on the MPF feed clutch; the paper feed motor starts turning to feed the top sheet of paper in the MPF tray one by one. Once the duplex exit/MPF detection lever senses the leading edge of the media at the duplex exit roller, it engages the duplex re-feed clutch to transport the sheet of paper into the paper path.
  • Page 174 7541-03x Paper registration As the media trips the Registration Sensor, it briefly stops at the Registration Rollers. Here, the leading edge is adjusted so it is parallel with the image on the Transfer Belt and synchronized with the Belt’s rotation. Next, the paper feed motor triggers the Registration Clutch to rotate the Registration Rollers to feed the paper toward the Transfer Belt and 2nd Transfer Roller.
  • Page 175 7541-03x Duplexing If a page is two-sided, a signal is sent to the Printer Controller Board once the trailing edge of the paper passes the Fuser Exit Sensor. The leading edge of the paper partially feeds from the Exit Rolls and then reverses direction and feeds into the Duplex Unit.

  • Page 177 7541-03x The X925 duplex ADF enables the user to create duplex scans automatically, eliminating the need to stop the scanning process to flip the media being duplicated over. The ADF uses a step motor, and a series of sensors to determine the media’s position in the paper path during the scan process.
  • Page 178 7541-03x 11. The duplex gate is moved into position by a solenoid. After passing through the gate, the paper reaches the paper pass sensor. The paper pass sensor performs two tasks. It can determine whether a jam has taken place. The jam is triggered by the time it takes for the paper to pass through the sensor.

This problem most commonly occurs when projecting transparencies with reflective overhead projectors. To obtain the highest projected color quality, transmissive overhead projectors are recommended. If a reflective projector must be used, then adjusting the Toner Darkness setting to 1, 2, or 3 will lighten the transparency.
