COPY PROCESS

* Output is controlled as follows to realizes the desirable separability and transferability.

Paper may not be separated from the drum surface
because of moisture or malfunction of the transfer/
separation charger during printing. As the result,
the paper enters into the cleaner and causes
jamming. To prevent this, a separation finger is
used to forcibly separate the paper which was left
around the drum.

(8) Fusing

Fusing is the process of melting the toner on
the paper and fixing it firmly on the paper.
Method : The melting point of the toner (main

ingredient: resin) is 100-110°C.



(Heat) Toner is melted by the heat of the

surface of the fuser roller.

(Pressure) The pressure roller is pressed

against the fuser roller by the
springs to increase the adherence
of the melted toner onto the paper.



Heat and pressure are applied to

the paper when it passes between
the fuser roller and pressure roller.

(Fusing) The toner is fused on the paper.
