Electrophotography (also known as xerography) refers to the printing technology used in laser printers, copiers, and fax machines. The process of printing involves the following steps.
- Step 1: The image to be printed is drawn (lasered) onto a laser-charged drum.
- Step 2: The part of the charged drum that has been irradiated by the laser drops in voltage.
- Step 3: When the charged toner is brought close to the drum, the toner will adhere to the area with lower voltage (the area irradiated by the laser).
- Step 4. This toner is then transferred to the paper and fixed to the paper using heat and pressure.
Matsusada Precision's high-voltage amplifiers are used in the development and manufacturing of each electrophotographic process.
Our COR series precisely controls the current in the photoreceptor drum and realizes charging of the photoreceptor drum by balanced corona discharge.
