High voltage power supply
The high-voltage power supply delivers the high-voltage biases to the following components used to
transfer toner during the image-formation process:
●
Primary-charging roller (in the cartridge)
●
Developing roller (in the cartridge)
●
Primary-transfer roller
●
Secondary-transfer roller

Circuit Description
Primary-charging-bias generation DC negative bias is applied to the surface of the photosensitive drum to prepare it
for image formation.
Developing-bias generation DC negative bias adheres the toner to each photosensitive drum during the image-
formation process.
