8.2 TONER RECYCLING MECHANISM
The toner removed from the drum falls onto the toner collection coil [A]. The
drum gear rotation is directly transmitted to the toner collection coil drive gear.
As the coil rotates, the toner moves from rear to front until it reaches the
toner recycling belt [B]. The paddles of the belt, which is driven by the toner
collection coil shaft, transports the toner into the developer, and the toner is
recycled.
