2.2.4 LASER EXPOSURE
Overview
•
The focusing lens [A] is a double toroidal lens that has a barrel toroidal
surface on both sides.
•
The shield glass [B] prevents toner and dust from entering the laser optics
area.
•
Mirror motor [C] speed: 10086.2069 rpm (16 dots/mm)
•
The strength of the beam emitted from the LD unit [D] is 4 mW with a
wavelength of 780 nm. The photo transistor [E] inside the LD unit
synchronizes the laser main scan.
•
The mirror [F] reflects the laser beam onto the drum.
The charge on the exposed areas of the drum drops to about -200V while non-
exposed areas remain at around -750V.
As a mechanical safety feature, a shutter slides to block the laser beam path
whenever the upper unit is opened.
