6.13 TONER SUPPLY AND RECYCLING
6.13.1 OVERVIEW
Toner is supplied from a toner bank [A] on the left side of the machine. The toner
bank holds two bottles. Only one bottle operates at a time.
A small toner bottle motor turns the bottle [B]. This spills toner into the toner
entrance tank [C].
The toner transport coil in the toner transport tube [D] transports toner to the toner
supply cylinder [E]. The toner supply cylinder contains a small agitator motor [F]
and toner end sensor [G]. The agitator prevents the toner from clumping. The
sensor monitors the level of toner in the toner supply cylinder.
Due to the length of the toner supply path (400 mm), a toner supply pump [H] is
needed to draw the toner into the toner hopper [I].
Toner Bottle Capacity: 1650 g A4 6%: About 60K prints
