First of all, we need to say thank you to Chester Carlson who invented a photocopier. This machine requires electricity and also photoconductivity in order to be operated.

You must be familiar with these components if you want to know anything about copiers. There are a halogen lamp, photosensitive drum, toner, and a conveyor belt. Halogen lamp will scan the document and it can be reflected a photosensitive drum. The sensitive drum or a metal roller is charged by a corona wire and coated with selenium. It remains negatively charged when it doesn’t expose to any light while the toner is vice versa. The drum will rotate and carries electrical shadow to the toner. The paper will move along on the conveyor belt and it will carry the positive particle. When the paper wants to come out, it will pass the hot roller and it functioned to fuse the toner particle.
