2.4 Image-forming principle
2.4.1 Charging

Chargin
g roller

Photoco
nductor
drum

In the charging step, the voltage is sent from the HVPS to the charging rollers on the four

photoconductor drums, and the charging roller is a part of the print cartridge in this printer. The

charging roller applies a uniform negative charge on the entire surface of the photoconductor drum

to prepare to be irradiated by the laser beam.

Service Tips

In case that the surface of the charging roller is damaged (for example, there are notches or

pits), it will cause uneven charge on the photoconductor drum, and periodic image defects may

appear on the printed page. In the event that the charging roller is severely damaged, the surface of

the photoconductor drum will not be charged properly, and excessive toner particles will cover the

photoconductor drum.

Page: 21
2.4.2 Exposure
Laser

Photoco
nductor
drum

In the exposure step, the laser printing head will emit a focused light beam to the surface of

each photoconductor drum to write invisible images. The images formed for each color are called

latent images or electrostatic images. The laser beam discharges only to the surface, causing the

beam to hit the photoconductor drum. This discharge creates a potential difference between the

exposed area and the rest of the photoconductor drum surface.

Service Tips

Do not touch the surface of the photoconductor drum directly by hand. Sebum on the skin

may cause charge difference on the surface, to which the toner cannot adhere correctly, which may

lead to repeated blank spots on the page or light printing. The print cartridge causing affected

color may need to be replaced. The surface of the photoconductor drum is coated with organic

substances that are sensitive to light. When using the printer, make sure to cover the print cartridge.

Page: 22
In case that the photoconductor drum is exposed for a long time, light or dark print quality

problems may occur, and the print cartridge may need to be replaced.
2.4.3 Develop

Photoco Toner adder


nductor Develo roller
drum per
Roller
When the laser exposes the photoconductor drum, the HVPS will transfer the electric charge

to the developer roller, which is evenly adhered with toner. Due to the electrical charge difference

between the developer roller and the photoconductor drum, the toner is attracted to the

laser-exposed area on the photoconductor drum surface. The process is similar to applying glue on

a can and then rolling it on flashlight powder. The flashlight powder sticks to the glue, not to the

rest of the can.

Service Tips

Do not touch the surface of the developer roller directly by hand. Sebum on the skin may

cause charge difference on the surface, to which the toner cannot adhere correctly, which may lead

Page: 23
to repeated blank spots on the page or light printing. The developer roller damaged may not

contact the surface of the photoconductor drum correctly, which may lead to periodic spots,

vertical white lines or vertical colored lines on the printed page.


2.4.4 First transfer

First transfer Transfer belt


roller Photoconducto
r drum

When each photoconductor is developed, HVPS transmits voltage to the first transfer roller

inside the transfer belt. For each color, the image on the surface of the photoconductor drum is

transferred to the surface of the transfer belt through the charge difference between the surface of

the photoconductor drum and the first transfer roller, which occurs during the direct surface

contact between the photoconductor drum and the transfer belt.

Service Tips

Do not touch the surface of the transfer belt directly by hand. Sebum on the skin may cause

charge difference on the surface, to which the toner cannot adhere correctly, which may lead to

periodic blank spots on the page or light printing. Do not use solvent or other cleaners to clean the

surface of the transfer belt. If surface scratch or charge difference is caused by solvent or other

cleaners, there may be blank or light spots on the printed page.


2.4.5 Second transfer

Transfer belt Second transfer


roller
Paper

Four-color image on the transfer belt will be transmitted to the second transfer roller. When

the image on the transfer belt reaches the predetermined point, the system will rub the paper by

timing until the paper just moves to the position between the transfer belt and the second transfer

roller. HVPS transmits the voltage to the second transfer roller to generate positive charge. When

the image on the transfer belt reaches the second transfer roller, the negatively charged toner will

stick to the paper and then the whole image is transferred from the transfer belt to the paper.

Service Tips

In the event that there are notches, pits or flat spots on the second transfer roller, its surface

will not get to the paper and transfer belt. As a result, there may be blank or light spots (or periodic

blank or light areas) on the page. If the toner is not completely transferred, the color of the whole

Page: 25
page may be light or partly blank due to the following reasons:

a. The second transfer roller fails to get to the transfer belt correctly.

b. HVPS has no voltage. The toner is transferred only by contact (no charge effect), and the

contact between HVPS and the second transfer roller can be checked.
2.4.6 Fuser

Fuser heat roller Fuser pressure roller

Paper

Transfer belt

With the help of transfer roller, the paper with image enters the fuser area. The fuser applies
heat and pressure to the paper to melt the toner particles and stick them to the paper permanently.
The fuser drives the paper to the exit roller, which then drives the paper to the paper channel.

Service Tips

In case that the fuser roller is damaged, toner may fall off the paper and the paper may be

jammed.

The toner falling off the paper indicates that there are fuser faults or the paper type is not set

correctly. Be sure to check the paper type settings before replacing the fuser. Printing on heavy

media (such as card paper) and setting the paper type as plain paper are common errors.

Page: 26
When removing the jammed paper from the fuser, use the fuser release buckle to reduce the

pressure on the paper. Do not transmit the unfused toner through the fuser, if possible. Try to

remove the jammed paper from the fuser in the opposite moving direction.

2.4.7 Cleaning/Wiping
The printer will perform these two cleaning processes during the imaging process. During these
two processes, the residual toner will be removed from the corresponding modules.
a. Cleaning of transfer belt

Transfer Screw
belt
Cleaning blade
After the image is transferred to the paper by transfer belt, the cleaning blade transfers the residual
toner to the waste toner bottle by the rotating screw.

b. Cleaning of photoconductor drum

Cleaning Photoconductor
blade drum
After the photoconductor drum transfers each color image to the transfer belt, the cleaning
blade will clean the residual toner on the photoconductor drum surface.
Prepare the surface of the photosensitive drum to restart the imaging process.
