2.1.3.9 Cleaning (Belt)
This is the step where toner remaining on the belt after transferring the
complete toner image to the paper is physically removed.
Excess toner from the “Secondary Transfer” step remains on the Belt. If
toner is allowed to remain on the Belt, it will interfere with subsequent steps
in the process. Remaining toner is scraped off by the Cleaning Blade
inside the BELT CLEANER ASSY in contact with the back surface of the
Belt. The toner scraped off the Belt is conveyed to inside of the AUGER
HIGH ASSY, and is collected in the WASTE TONER BOX.
A total of 4 toner images are transferred from the drum to the Belt at the
“Repeat (Complete Toner Image Formation) step. During this time, the
toner image in the process of being formed on the Belt will be destroyed if
the Cleaning Blade touches the Belt. The Cleaning Blade therefore must
be moved away from the Belt (retract) except for when transferring the
image to paper (advance). Advance and retract are switched by the BTR
CAM SOLENOID.

2.1.3.10 Fixing
This is the step where toner is fixed on the paper by heat and pressure.
Because even the slightest touch by the fingers would destroy the
complete toner image transferred from the Belt, the toner image is fixed on
the paper by the FUSER ASSY (fixer).
Toner is melted by heat of the HEAT ROLL, which uses the H/R HEATER
as a source of heat, and is fused on the paper by the pressure of being
sandwiched between the HEAT ROLL and PRESSURE ROLL. The
PRESSURE ROLL is equipped with a built-in P/R HEATER as an auxiliary
source of heat.
