Stage 3: Photosensitive Drum Cleaning
Step 4:
Photosensitive
Drum Cleaning
During the transfer stage, a small amount of toner does not transfer onto
the paper. To prepare for the next imaging cycle, the toner remaining on
the photosensitive drum surface is scraped by the cleaner blade and the
drum is cleaned.
The scraped toner particles are trapped with the sweeper strip and
collected in the toner disposal box by means of the toner transport plate
and the waste toner transport screw. The waste toner transport screw is
driven by the main motor.
