Electrophotographic technology

Electrophotographic technology, commonly used in laser printers and copiers, works by creating an image with static electricity on a light-sensitive drum. The drum is charged, then selectively exposed to light, which discharges specific areas to form an electrostatic image. Toner particles, which are electrically charged, are attracted to the charged areas of the drum and transferred onto paper. Finally, the toner is fused onto the paper with heat, producing a permanent image. This process allows for fast, high-quality printing with precise detail and is widely used in office and commercial printing devices.
