Print unit section (photo conductor) Theory of operation Ver.1.0 Nov. 2007 10.3.2 Photo conductor post-exposure control • The entire surface of the photo conductor is exposed to light before the photo conductor stops rotating during the stop sequence or color change sequence (from the color print to monochrome print) after a print cycle. • Ozone stagnant in areas near the charge corona unit is adsorbed on the surface of the photo conductor. This reduces sensitivity of the photo conductor, causing white bands to occur in the image. • To prevent this image failure from occurring, the entire surface of the photo conductor is exposed to light and thus neutralized. This effectively prevents the surface of the photo conductor from absorbing ozone. 10.3.3 Photo conductor total exposure control upon recovery • If the "Photo conductor post-exposure control" described above is not correctly done, the entire surface of the photo conductor is exposed to light, thereby preventing ozone from being adsorbed on the surface of the photo conductor. • If the "Photo conductor post-exposure control" is not performed due to a media misfeed or malfunction, the entire surface of the photo conductor is exposed to light at the same time that the "2nd transfer roller cleaning control" is performed during the recovery procedure from the media misfeed or malfunction. 10.3.4 Photo conductor small amount rotation control • Ozone stagnant in areas near the charge corona unit reduces sensitivity of the photo conductors, causing white bands to occur in the image. • To prevent this image problem, the photo conductor is turned so as to allow its surface facing the charge corona unit to deviate, thereby preventing the surface sensitivity from being reduced.
