(6) Transfer
The transfer roller is composed of conductive sponge material. This roller is set so that the
surface of the OPC drum and sheets of paper will adhere closely.
A sheet of paper is placed on the surface of the OPC drum and the positive charge opposite
to the negative charge of a toner is applied from the reverse side by the transfer roller.
When a high negative voltage is applied from the power supply to the transfer roller, the
positive charge induced on the surface of the transfer roller moves to the paper side at the
contact part between the transfer roller and the sheet of paper. The positive charge on the
lower side of the sheet of paper then causes the negatively charged toner adhering to the
surface of the OPC drum to move to the upper side of the sheet. This enables transfer to the
sheet of paper.
