CompTIA A+ Core 1: Laser Printers

  • Name 2 benefits and 1 drawback of laser printing
    High Quality and Fast / Complicated
  • What is the imaging drum?
    A photosensitive component that is painted by the laser, it picks up toner and transfers it to the page
  • What is the fuser assembly?
    A device that applies heat and pressure to the toner to melt it onto the paper
  • What is the transfer belt and roller?
    Used in color laser printers to apply different colors of toner to the page using 1 transfer belt per color and a single transfer roller to apply the combined toner to the page
  • What are pickup rollers?
    The set of rollers that feeds the paper into the printer sheet-by-sheet
  • What is the separation pad?
    The device that ensures only the top page is fed into the printer
  • What is the duplexing assembly?
    The device that flips the page to enable two-sided (duplex) printing
  • What are the 7 steps of a laser print job?
    Processing (Build the Page into Memory), Charging (Prepare the Drum with a Negative Electrostatic Charge), Exposing (Write the Image with the Laser), Developing (Add Toner to the Charged Areas of the Drum), Transferring (Move the Toner from the Drum to the Paper), Fusing (Fuse the Toner to the Paper), Cleaning (Remove Excess Toner)
  • What should you make sure of when changing the toner?
    If the toner is contained in the drum, make sure to keep it in the bag as the drum is photosensitive
  • When maintaining a laser printer, why should you wait some time after powering it down?
    The fuser assembly may be hot and dangerous to touch
  • What is the last step of maintaining a laser printer?
    Reset the page counter
  • What does calibrating the laser printer do?
    Ensures proper toner density on the prints
  • True or False: Internal cleaning should only use water and isopropanol
    True
