Scanner functions and operation
The following sections describe how the document scanner functions.
Scanner functions
The contact image sensor (CIS) is the major component of the optical scanning system. The CIS
consists of three LEDs (red, green, and blue), a light guide, the scanning glass, the rod lens array, and
a sensor array. When the CIS scans a document, the CIS moves and the paper is stationary.
Figure 4-2 Optical system (1 of 2)
The formatter controls the CIS. To begin scanning, the formatter sends a signal to the CIS. The LEDs
illuminate and the light passes through the light guide and scanning glass and strikes the document.
Light that the document reflects passes back through the scanning glass and rod lens array into the
sensor array. The sensor array consists of 5,148 photosensors (468 photosensors on each of 11 sensor
driver circuits). The sensor array collects and amplifies the reflected light and converts it into serial data
in the driver circuits. The CIS sends the data to the formatter for image formation.

Scanner operation
At startup and periodically at other times, the scanner assembly moves systematically to locate its home
position. It then calibrates to a white strip located under the glass at the right end of the scan tub.

ENWWLaser/scanner system41
Pickup/feed/delivery system
The pickup/feed/delivery system consists of several types of feed rollers and sensors. The DC controller
uses two motors and two solenoids to drive the rollers. Three media-detection sensors detect media as
it passes through the printer. If media does not reach or pass each sensor within a specified time period,
the DC controller determines that a jam has occurred and alerts the formatter.

Image-formation system
Laser printing requires the interaction of several technologies, including electronics, optics, and
electrophotographics, to produce a printed page. Each process functions independently and must be
coordinated with the other product processes. Image formation consists of the following five processes:
Electrostatic latent-image formation
●
Developing
●
Transfer
●
Fusing
●
Drum cleaning
●
These five processes contain seven steps, which are shown in
on page 43 and described in the following sections.
Figure 4-9 Image-formation system
Step 1: Primary charging
DC and AC biases are applied to the primary charging roller, which transfers a uniform negative potential
to the photosensitive drum.
Figure 4-10 Primary charging
Figure 4-9 Image-formation system
ENWWImage-formation system43
Step 2: Laser beam exposure
The laser beam scans the photosensitive drum to neutralize negative charges on parts of the drum. An
electrostatic latent image is formed on the drum where negative charges were neutralized.
Step 3: Developing
The developing cylinder comes in contact with the photosensitive drum to deposit toner onto the
electrostatic latent image.
NOTE: The charges on the exposed area of the drum are shown as positive in Figure 4-11 Developing
on page 44. The charges are actually negative, but they are more positive than the charges on the
developing cylinder.
Figure 4-11 Developing
Toner acquires a negative charge through friction from the developing cylinder and the blade. When the
negatively charged toner comes in contact with the drum, the toner adheres to the electrostatic latent
image. The image on the drum becomes visible because of the toner.
Step 4: Transfer
The transfer charging roller, to which a DC positive bias is applied, imparts a positive charge on the print
media. When the print media comes in contact with the photosensitive drum, the toner is transferred to
the print media.
44Chapter 4 Operational theoryENWW
Figure 4-12 Transfer
Step 5: Separation
The elasticity of the print media causes its separation from the photosensitive drum. A static-charge
eliminator aids separation by weakening any electrostatic adhesion.
Figure 4-13 Separation
Step 6: Fusing
The DC negative bias applied to the fusing film strengthens the holding force of the toner on the print
media and prevents the toner from scattering.
ENWWImage-formation system45
Figure 4-14 Fusing
Step 7: Drum cleaning
The cleaning blade scrapes the residual toner off of the photosensitive drum and deposits it into the
waste-toner case.

Introduction
This chapter documents the removal and replacement of field-replaceable units (FRUs) only. Replacing
FRUs is generally the reverse of removal. Occasionally, notes and tips are included to provide directions
for difficult or critical replacement procedures.
HP does not support the repairing of individual subassemblies or troubleshooting at the component
level.
Note the length, diameter, color, type, and location of each screw. Be sure to return each screw to its
original location during reassembly.
Incorrectly routed or loose wire harnesses can interfere with other internal components and can become
damaged or broken. Frayed or pinched harness wires can be difficult to locate. When replacing wire
harnesses, always use the provided wire loops, lance points, or wire-harness guides.
Removal and replacement warnings, cautions, notes, and tips
WARNING! Turn the product off, wait 5 seconds, and then remove the power cord before attempting
