2-1-5 Transfer/Separation section
The image developed by toner on the drum is transferred onto the paper because of the electrical attraction
between the toner itself and the transfer roller. The transfer roller is negatively biased so that the positively
charged toner is attracted onto the paper while it is pinched by the drum and the transfer roller.
