2nd transfer roller cleaning
• DC positive and negative transfer bias voltages are alternately applied to the 2nd transfer
roller. This allows toner residue on the surface of the 2nd transfer roller to be transferred
back to the transfer belt, thus cleaning the 2nd transfer roller.
• The toner transferred back to the transfer belt is collected by the cleaning blade.
