DEVELOPING UNIT 4.2 Operation hp Color 9850mfp 4.2.1 Flow of developer Developer in the developing unit, after being agitated by the agitator screw, is supplied to the developing sleeve by the conveyance screw. At this time, the bristles amount of the developer on the developing sleeve is regulated by the developing regulation plate. After completion of developing, the developer on the developing sleeve is collected by the scraper magnet roller to prevent the developer immediately after completion of developing from mixing with a new developer. This secures the developing follow-up at a high rate of printing. Collected developer is returned to the agitator screw by the collection screw. This allows developer to make a circulation along a defined path.
