AR-651/810 COPY PROCESS 3 - 9
(9) Discharging
Discharging is a process of eliminating any (–)
charge remaining on the OPC drum before the next
charging process begins.
If discharging does not occur, the following
phenomenon could occur:
The (–) charge remains on the photoconductive
drum.
Uneven charge is applied to the drum during the
next copy.
훹
The next copy has a double image. (Preceding image
appears.)
Solution :
Expose the entire surface of the OPC drum to the
light by the discharge LED array.
훹
The OPC drum becomes electrically discharged.
훹
All the (–) charges remaining on the OPC drum are
conducted to the ground.
훹
The preparation for the next copy is completed.
