Laser/scanner system

The laser/scanner system forms the latent electrostatic image on the photosensitive drums according to the VIDEO signals sent from the formatter. The product has two laser/scanners: one for yellow and magenta and the other for cyan and black.

The main components of the laser/scanner system are the laser unit and the scanner motor unit, which are controlled by the signals sent from the DC controller.
