Image Transfer
All Electrostatic Copiers work under the premis that a charge of electricity is placed on an Image Drum which has the ability to retain the electric charge much like a capacitor holds it's charge but with the ability to hold or release the charge depending on how much light and darkness is applied to the Image Drum. on analog copiers the light and darkness is reflected from the mirrors on the scan area and brought down to the drum surface creating the image that was reflected from the paper that is being scanned. On digital copiers the Image is processed (much like a desktop scanner) by processing the reflected image and converting the image into dots(DPI) then a laser will shoot a light laser image corresponding to the paper that is being scanned onto the Image drum. Image Creation Now that the Image Drum has been hit with light either from the laser or the reflecting light, it will have various charges on its surface (exacting the Image of the scanned original paper) this is called an elecrtostatic latent Image (ESLI) The Image Drum with the ESLI will now be turned till it reaches the developing unit (where toner and developer are mixed to charge the toner (yes toner has the ability to magnetize after mixed with the developer powder) Now, where the drum meets the developer roller is the magical part. Now that the toner is charged with magnetism it will adhire to the Image drum (where the dark electrostatic parts from the Paper Image came down on the Drum) making all the dark parts pull in the toner to the drum and all the light parts do not allow toner to contact the Image Drum, now this Image drum has an image with toner on it (wanna test this ? Stop a copy in the middle of copying, open the copier and pull out the drum, you will see toner on the drum with parts of the image from the original paper ) After the Image on the drum is full of toner It will be turned where the Transfer part is executed Image transfer
Ever put metal fragments on a paper then put a magnet below the paper ? the fragments are attracted to the magnet. This is how the transfer process is done. the drum is turning with the image of toner on it the a paper is positioned below the drum and sinchronized at the same speed with the Image drum, at the point where the paper and the drum meet a high voltage is applied in order to attract the toner off the Image drum and on to the paper, now the paper is full of toner looking like the Image original paper that was scanned. Final sequence now that the Toner is on the paper (looking just like the original) two rollers with heat at about 200 Digrees F press the toner on to the paper making it permanently fused on the paper.

What types of capacitors are used in fluorescent tube starters?
electrostatic capacitor
Where can you buy used copy machines?
Try online at websites such as 'copiers for sale',' tbc copiers', 'copexinc'. They all buy and sell used copy machines. It would also be worth checking on eBay if a specific model is required.
What is capable of storing electrical energy in an electrostatic field?
condenser
Electrostatic discharge is commonly known as?
i think its static electricity.
Do charges move around a circuit due to electrostatic forces or potential difference?
Yes to both.
What are some highly rated digital copiers?
Many high rated copiers are available, but the most prestige types include: Canon Image Copiers, Ricoh Aficio Copiers, Xerox Copiers, Brother Multifunction Copiers, and Toshiba Copiers. They are well known for speed, stand alone copying, having a high number of pixels, and having a high paper capacity.
How many types of electrostatic charges have been discovered?
There are two types of the electrostatic charges that have been discovered. The positive and the negative charge. There is also the neutral charges.
What are the different types of electrostatic discharge?
There are many different types of electrostatic discharge. Some examples include electric sparks such as from lightning, corona discharge, and brush discharge.
Is there electrostatic dissipative mats that can be placed on an electrostatic dissipative floor?
Yes, 'Bondline' sales different types of antistatic flooring.
What are some good rated colour copiers?
There are many different types of color copiers available on the market. HP is one of the best rated companies that offer many different technological systems.
What types of capacitors are used in fluorescent tube starters?
electrostatic capacitor
What two types of forces can result from electric charges?
Electrostatic force and magnetic force.
Describe the Three types of force that affects objects?
The three types of force in nature are . . . -- gravity -- electrostatic -- magnetic -- strong nuclear -- weak nuclear
How many types of charge have been discovered?
There are two types of the electrostatic charges that have been discovered. The positive and the negative charge. There is also the neutral charges.
Where can you purchase Sharp copiers?
One can purchase Sharp copiers from Xerox. Other options for purchasing Sharp copiers include Staples, Copyfaxes, ZapCopiers, Direct Source, and Sharp USA.
How does one order personal copiers from Canon?
One can order personal copiers from Canon by going to the official Canon website and buying them from the "Personal Copiers" section. One can also go to an office supplies website such as Staples, where Personal Copiers made by Canon can also be bought.
Do copiers produce ozone?
Yes. Electrostatic processes (such as most copiers and laser printers) use corona in the process of making prints. The corona is electrons that can break apart oxygen molecules. Some of these single oxygen atoms recombine with molecular oxygen to make ozone (and other to make NOx). These printing devices are typically fitted with carbon filters, in the hopes that the filter will destroy the produced ozone (and NOx), and that the owner will replace the filter periodically.
