Transfer Belt Contact - 1
The transfer belt does not touch the color PCUs (cyan, magenta and
yellow) when the machine makes a black and white print.
When the machine starts to make a color print, the transfer belt contact
motor turns the CMY contact cam shaft.
The CMY contact cams slide the right and left sliders. The sliders lift the
belt transfer rollers for the CMY OPCs to the transfer belt.

Because of this mechanism, the life of the transfer belt is longer (it is not
necessary for the transfer belt to touch the color PCUs when the machine makes
a black and white print).

However, if the customer selects "Off" with the "ACS" setting, the four OPC
drums always touch the image transfer belt.
