2.7 IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION
2.7.1 OVERVIEW
The machine uses a transfer roller [A], which touches the surface of the drum [B].
The high voltage supply board supplies a positive current to the transfer roller,
which attracts the toner from the drum onto the paper. The current depends on the
paper width, paper type, and paper feed tray.
The curvature of the drum and the antistatic plate [C] help the paper to separate
from the drum. The high voltage supply board also supplies a negative dc voltage
to the antistatic plate.
Drive from the drum through a gear [D] turns the transfer roller
The transfer current can be adjusted by the printer service mode (Service Menu 2:
Transfer set).
