Transfer belt pressure/release mechanism
The 1st transfer roller that presses the transfer belt against the drum is made up of the 1st transfer rollers /
Y, /M and /C for the drums /Y, /M and /C and the 1st transfer roller /K for the drum /K. The 3 1st transfer roll-
ers /Y, /M and /C of these rollers operate as a unit (color 1st transfer roller assembly).
When the 1st transfer is made from the drum to the transfer belt, the color 1st transfer roller assembly and
the 1st transfer roller /K push out the transfer belt from the inside and press it against the drum, by means
of the cam that is driven by the 1st transfer pressure/release motor (M19).
The form of pressure varies with the copy mode. In the full color mode, both of the color 1st transfer roller
assembly and the 1st transfer roller /K are pressed. However in the black-and-white mode, only the 1st
transfer roller /K is pressed.
The release condition is detected by the 1st transfer HP sensor (PS15). The cam drive position which var-
ies with the copy mode is controlled by the drive amount of the M19 which starts when the PS15 turns off.
