6.9.7 TONER END SENSOR
The toner end sensor [A], a piezoelectric sensor (a sensor sensitive to pressure) is
attached to the toner hopper.
6.9.8 SHUTTER MECHANISM
When the toner bottle holder is opened, a self-sealing shutter prevents toner spill.
The top of the shutter [A] has a semi-circular opening [B]. Normally, toner from the
toner bottle [C] flows through this opening into the hopper below.
However, pulling out the shutter cover [D] closes the cover automatically to prevent
toner spill from the hopper.
