Transferring Stage
At the transferring station, the toner image on the drum’s surface
is transferred to the paper. A positive charge applied to the back
of the paper by the transfer roller causes the negatively charged
toner on the drum’s surface to be attracted to the page.
The small radius of the drum and the stiffness of the paper peel
the paper away from the drum. The static charge eliminator also
helps separate the paper from the drum. The static charge
eliminator weakens the attractive forces between the negatively
charged drum surface and the positively charged paper. Without
this help, thin paper can wrap around the drum. After separation,
the paper moves to the fusing station and the drum rotates to the
cleaning and conditioning stations.
