5. The voltage of both sides of Regulation Roller is 0V as these parts are connected to the
ground.
It is higher than that of Developer Roller (-230V).
When the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, therefore, it moves onto the
Regulation Roller.
The side areas of the Developer Roller are not covered with the toner as a result, so it is
possible to avoid the toner drops into the machine from the side.
