Color LaserWriter 12/600 PS Basics & Theory 1–63
Developing
Bias
When the print sequence starts, the primary charging voltage (AC/DC)
is applied and the toner cartridge is pressed against the photosensitive
drum to rotate the developing cylinder. Then the high-voltage control
IC (IC1003) on the high-voltage power supply board sets the devel-
oping bias DC drive signal (
/DEVDC) to “L” and applies the developing
DC bias to the developing cylinder through the developing bias contact
behind the mechanical controller board. After the specified period of
time has elapsed, the developing bias AC drive signal (
/DEVAVE) goes
“L” and the voltage superimposing developing AC bias onto devel-
oping DC bias is applied to the developing cylinder.
The developing bias is applied only when the toner cartridge is pressed
against the photosensitive drum. Before the toner cartridge leaves the
drum, the
/DEVDC signal and /DEVAVE signal are set to “H” to turn off
the developing bias.
Note: The rotation of the toner press drive gear actuates a rocker pin
that opens and closes the developing bias contact. This completes the
circuit to the developing cylinder that is shown on the next page. For
more information, see the “Toner Carousel Assembly” topic in the Take
Apart chapter.
