1.2.2 Basic color printing process
(a) The printer has a toner cartridge of each color yellow, magenta, cyan and black as
shown in Fig.4-3.
(b) The toner image developed using the primary colors is transferred to the transfer drum
for the printed color combination as shown in Fig.4-4 a .
(c) The toner image formed on the transfer drum is transferred to the transported paper as
shown in Fig.4-4 b .
(d) The toner on the paper is fused by the thermal fixing unit to fix the toner image onto
the paper as shown in Fig.4-4 c .
Summarizing the above processes, a toner color layer is formed on the transported paper,
and subsequently, the color image is made through the subtractive process.
