Toner flow
1.
Toner stored in the hopper is agitated by the agitating blade and conveyed into the
toner supply portion by the conveyance blade fitted to the leading edge of the agi-
tating blade.
2.
The toner conveyed into the toner supply portion is conveyed by the supply roller
onto the developing roller.
3.
At this time, regulator blade/1st and /2nd regulate the height of toner on the surface
of the developing roller.
4.
Toner then sticks to the electrostatic latent image formed on the surface of the
photo conductor. That part of toner left on the surface of the developing roller is
returned to the toner supply portion.
