Chapter 7 7.8 Toner Container 7.8.1 Overview 0006-6323 iR2270 / iR2870 / iR3570 / iR4570 / iR3530 The toner cartridge is constructed as shown in the following figure. The cartridge is filled with 1-component insulating magnetic toner (if iR3570/4570, 1220 g; if iR2270/2870, 1060 g). When the sub hopper requests a supply of toner, the cartridge itself rotates to feed toner.

When the photopositive surface comes close to or into contact with the toner-coated surface of paper, the toner layer can become shifted toward the trailing edge of the paper.
Page 719
<Field Remedy> Use the following service mode item to decrease the developing bias, thus suppressing the symptom: COPIER>OPTION>BODY>FIX-SMR 0: default 1: decrease the developing bias by a single step (-20 V) 2: decrease the developing bias by 2 steps (-40 V) If '2' is selected, the lines can become thinner.
