Image Transfer and Paper Separation
Overview
The transfer roller [A] touches the surface of the drum [B]. The high voltage supply board
supplies a positive current to the transfer roller, which attracts the toner from the drum onto
the paper. The current depends on the paper width, paper type, and paper feed tray.
The curvature of the drum and the discharge plate [C] help the paper to separate from the
drum. The discharge plate is grounded.
