You work for a small city IT department, and you are going over the stages of the laser print process with a new technician. You are currently discussing the stage in the process when the discharged areas on the drum attract the microscopic bits of toner to create a toner-covered image of the final product. What is this stage in the laser print process called?

A. Writing

B. Developing

C. Transferring

D. Fusing

Solution

B. This is the developing stage, which occurs after the charging and writing stages. After the developing stage comes the transferring stage, when the image is pulled onto the paper by the transfer corona wire, then the fusing stage, in which the fusing rollers and fusing lamp fix the image to the paper, and then finally the cleaning stage, when residual toner is removed.
