Fig. 3-1
(1) Charging:
Negatively charges the surface of the
photoconductive drum.
↓
(6) Transfer:
Transfers the visible image on the
photoconductive drum onto paper.
Separation:
Separates the paper from the drum
together with the toner.
↓
(2) Original exposure:
Converts images on the original into optical
signals.
↓
(7) Fusing:
Fuses the toner onto the paper by applying
heat and pressure.
↓
(3) Scanning:
Converts image optical signals into
electrical signals.
↓
(8) Brush cleaning:
Cleans dirt and paper dust on the drum.
↓
(4) Writing:
Converts image electrical signals into
optical signals (laser emission) and
exposes them to the surface of the
photoconductive drum.
↓
(9) Blade cleaning:
Forcibly removes the residual toner on the
drum.
↓
(5) Development:
Makes the negatively-charged toner
adhere to the photoconductive drum and
forms a visible image.
