Kyocera FS-1800 - Transfer

(4) Transfer
The image developed by toner on the drum A is transferred onto the paper because of the electrical
attraction between the toner itself and the transfer roller B. The transfer roller B is negatively-
biased so that the positively-charged toner is attracted onto the paper while it is pinched by the
drum A and the transfer roller B.
Figure 4-1-12 Transfer
The nominal transfer bias is set to approximately -2.3 kV (limit) with the -65 µA current. Since the
ideal potential of the transfer bias depends on the thickness of paper, the bias is raised to approximately
-2.6 kV/-65 µA for thicker paper. On the other hand, the bias current is reduced to -2.1 kV/-65 µA
for thin paper.
