5.Transferring: Another thin wire electrode, the transfer corona, puts a high electrostatic charge on the paper. This charge attracts the toner, transferring the toner from the OPC drum to the paper.
6.Fusing: Heat and pressure rollers fuse the transferred image to the paper.
7.Cleaning: As the OPC drum continues to turn, erase lamps remove all residual electrostatic charge from the OPC. The cleaning unit then removes unused toner from the OPC.
