The one-direction flow of developer in the D014/D015 development unit improves image
quality.
In the D014/D015, the path for fresh developer is separate from the path that collects excess
toner from the doctor blade that smoothes the toner that will be applied to the drum.
Compare with the B132/B200 above where this excess toner mixes with fresh toner. The
D014/D015 achieves a more even coating of toner on the drum and uses only fresh
toner/developer. This means the density of the image is more uniform.
