6.12.6 PTR CLEANING
[A]: PTR cleaning brush roller
[B]: PTR (Paper Transfer Roller)
[C]: PTR cleaning blade
[D]: PTR lubricant bar
[E]: PTR waste toner collection coil
[F]: PTR motor
The PTR cleaning brush roller [A], driven by the PTR motor [F], removes toner from
the PTR [B] because these rollers rotate in opposite directions.
The PTR cleaning blade [C] removes toner that remains after brush cleaning.
The PTR lubricant bar [D] lubricates the surface of the PTR to facilitate cleaning.
The removed toner falls into the PTR waste toner collection coil [E]. The coils move
the toner to the transverse waste toner collection coil at the back of the machine,
and this coil sends the waste toner to the waste toner bottle.
