摘要： An image forming apparatus has a fixing unit. A heat roller heats a toner image on a print medium to fuse the toner image. A first temperature detector is in contact with a longitudinal end portion of the heat roller, and generates a first temperature data. A second temperature detector opposes the heat roller and is in proximity to a substantially middle portion of the heat roller. The second temperature detector generates a second temperature data. Depending on the first temperature data and the second temperature data, a controller performs temperature control either in a first mode where the heater is energized such that the first temperature data is equal to a first target value, or in a second mode where the heater is energized such that second temperature data is equal to a second target value.

摘要： A developing roller rotates in contact with a photoreceptor drum. The developing roller controls a development thorough the formation of a toner layer 50 .mu.m or less in thickness on an outer surface. The photoreceptor drum transfers a toner image formed on the outer surface by the controlled-development onto a medium. A fixation device heat-treats and fixes the toner image transferred onto the medium. A toner for the developing treatment comprises a resin having a Tg of 75.degree. C. or more as at least part of it.

摘要： The developing unit of an electrostatic printer is designed to avoid under-development of the bottom part of a dark latent image due to a reduction in recycled toner. This can be accomplished by providing the developing unit with one developing roller and at least two supply rollers. Alternatively, the developing unit has just one supply roller, but the rate at which toner is transferred from the supply roller to the developing roller can be switched. As another alternative, the supply roller and developing roller are designed to turn slowly enough that development of an entire page is completely developed before reaching the point where under-development would begin.

摘要： An electrophotographic printing apparatus has two charging bodies that are held at different potentials. The first charging body makes contact with the surface of a photosensitive drum; the second charging body makes contact with the first charging body. Toner particles that have acquired an electrostatic charge opposite to their normal charge are attracted from the drum surface to the first charging body. These toner particles are then attracted from the first charging body to the second charging body, whereby the first charging body is kept clean and able to charge the surface of the photosensitive drum to a uniform potential.

摘要： A method of forming an electrostatic latent image includes printing operation and toner recovering operation. The printing operation includes charging, forming an electrostatic latent image, developing, and transferring operations. The toner recovering operation includes the step of charging the photosensitive drum in timed relation to the rotation of the photosensitive drum after printing operation so that reversely charged toner deposited on the charging roller migrates from the charging roller to the photosensitive drum. The toner migrated from the charging roller to the photosensitive drum is recovered into a developer. An apparatus for forming an image includes a charging roller, photosensitive drum, developing roller, and transfer roller. The apparatus further includes a reversely-charged-toner recovering device which causes the photosensitive drum to be charged in timed relation to the rotation of the photosensitive drum after printing operation so that the reversely charged toner deposited on the charging roller migrates to the photosensitive drum. The developer recovers the toner which has migrated to the photosensitive drum from the charging roller.

摘要： In a method for operating a serial dot matrix printer having a print head that is reciprocated along a first direction and stopped for performing bi-directional printing on a medium that is moved in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, correction amounts for correcting the bi-directional printing alignment are stored in a memory device. The desire correction amount is then selected and stored in a battery-backed-up memory. The bi-directional printing then is performed using the desired correction amount stored in the battery-backed-up memory.

摘要： A printer includes a platen having a longitudinal axis and a printing head mounted in opposition to the platen. The guide shaft is mounted to extend parallel to the axis of the platen. A carriage supports the printing head and includes a carriage frame mounted on the guide shaft for movement axially therealong and for movement rotatably thereabout and a base plate having a first end integral with the carriage frame and a second end directed away therefrom. A guide plate is fixed at a position below the second end of the base plate and extends parallel to the guide shaft. A parallel link mechanism includes a fixing member attached to a lower surface of the second end of the base plate and a slider memebr connected to the fixing member. The slider member has a slot within which fits the guide plate, such that movement of the carriage axially of the guide shaft causes the parallel link mechanism and the second end of the base plate to be guided by the guide plate. An adjusting screw is threaded through a hole in the second end of the base plate and has a tip end in engagement with the slider member. Thus, upon rotation of the adjusting screw the slider member and the second end of the base plate are moved relatively toward or away from each other, thereby moving the carriage and the printing head rotatably about the guide shaft to increase or decrease the platen gap. A flexible member connects the slider member to the fixing member to prevent the slider member from becoming inclined relative to the guide plate.

摘要： A permanent magnet type stepping motor comprising first and second stator assemblies arranged coaxially about a longitudinal axis. Each assembly includes first and second ring-shaped stators made of magnetic material. The first ring-shaped stator has a central portion with an opening therein, an annular yoke surrounding the periphery of the central portion and a plurality of pole pieces distributed about the circumference of the opening and extending toward a plane transverse to the axis. The second ring-shaped stator has a central portion with an opening therein, an annular substantially planar yoke surrounding the periphery of the central portion and a plurality of pole pieces distributed about the circumference of the opening and extending away from the transverse plane so as to interleave with the pole pieces of the first stator. The central portion of the second stator protrudes from the plane of the yoke in a direction away from the transverse plane. A coil is interposed between the first and second ring-shaped stators and surrounds the pole pieces. The first and second stator assemblies are arranged with respect to the transverse plane so that the second ring-shaped stator of the first stator assembly is adjacent the second ring-shaped stator of the second stator assembly at the transverse plane thereby forming a gap between the protruding central portions of the second stators of the first and second stator assemblies. A permanent magnet having N and S poles distributed alternately about the outer circumference thereof is rotatably supported within the openings in the central portions of the first and second stators of the first and second stator assemblies.
