Subject: Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] DLP with BROTHER HL2130YJ1

From: Slavko Kocjancic <eslavko@...>

Ahhh... Now I see that too. The transfer roller is a part of drum
cartridge. So I need to do mod every time I change the drum (but not the
toner). But I think this should be not a problem. One drum life for
making PCBs is more than enought. Even toner cartridge should do a lot
of PCBs...

I don't know about PCB potential. As I understand the Transfer roller is
on negative potential (In E260 and Brother), but in curent mod the board
is simply grounded. Is it cable to the transfer roller disconnected?!?


... and I upload service manual (I see no copyright notice) so other can
check too...
