(3) Data reading (scanning)
Data reading is the process of illuminating the original with light and converting the reflected light into
electrical signals.
CCD board
The light reflected from the original is directed to
the charge coupled device (CCD) and this optical
image information is converted to electrical signals
(image signals), which are then sent to the image
processing section via the scanner control PC
board.
The CCD for color processing has RGB filters provided over its surf ace, which allow the CCD to read
the light amount in the respective ranges of wavelength. The image data corresponding to the respective RGB colors is then sent to the image
processing section.

Difference between "light "
and "dark" is divided into

(4) Data writing
Data writing is the process of converting the image
signals
light signals and exposing the drum surface with
the light signal.
Namely, the image signals sent from the image
processing section are converted into optical signals (laser emission) by the semiconductor laser
element, which are then used to expose the drum
surface, thus forming an electrostatic latent image
there.
