Ricoh PE-P1 - Waste Toner Collection from the OPC; Toner Mixing and Transport

Waste Toner Collection from the OPC
The waste toner collection coil [A] transports waste toner from the OPC to the right side of the AIO. After
that, the waste toner transport belt [B], which is driven by the transport belt shaft [C], lifts waste toner up to
the waste toner tank [E].
The collected waste toner is moved to the left side of the AIO by the waste toner collection coil [D] and
transport belt shaft [C].
A flexible sheet [F] separates the unused toner area from the waste toner area. The waste toner area
becomes larger when toner is consumed.
