Image Formation Process
Description
Primary charging block
Charges the surface of the photosensitive drum to a uniform negative potential.
Laser exposure block
Exposes laser beam on the surface of the drum for charge neutralization to form the latent image
formation.
Developing block
Causes the negatively-charged toner on the developingcylinder to adhere to the latent image for-
mation on the surface of the photosensitive drum to form a visible image.
Transfer block
Applies positive charge to the back of a paper to transfer the toner on the drum to the paper.
Separation block
Separates a paper from the photosensitive drum with its elastic force and at the same time applies
negative charge to the back of paper to facilitate paper separation.
Drum cleaning block
Scrapes off the residual toner on the surface of the drum using the cleaning blade and feeds it to
the waste toner container.
Image Stabilization Control
At times, changes in the environment or wear on the machine can cause its image output to become unstable. To obtain a stable
image, the machine uses the following control mechanisms.
■ PASCAL Control
This control stabilizes gradation density characteristics on the image.
This control is executed when the following is selected in user mode: Auto Adjust Gradation > Full Adjust
Patch pattern on the test print is scanned by the Reader to create a gradation table.
