5.Variation of the OPC belt potential:

a.The OPC belt is biased to -CBV(V).

b.The OPC belt surface is evenly charged to -Vo(V) during the charging process.

c.During the exposing process, the optical unit emits a laser beam that strikes the OPC belt surface forming an electrostatic image. The electrostatic image is at -VR(V) potential.

d.The negatively charged toner is moved to the OPC belt in the development process due to the difference between

-VR(V) and -DBV(V). A visible image is the result.

e.The negatively charged toner on the OPC belt is moved to the transfer belt because the potential GND of the transfer belt is greater than -VR(V) of the OPC belt.

f.The OPC belt is discharged by the erase lamp radiating on the OPC belt.
