This video has the best illustration. Before watching this video, i was sorta confused about structure and the functions of all the rollers. Now i have a clear understanding
I was wondering how printers work, so I stumbled on this video. Amazing! Thank you very much for creating this masterpiece and clearing up a hole in my knowledge about printers! I will never forget this! Keep up the good work!!
That was THE BEST explanation of how a Priner works that no words can describe as good as it can be and has been shown through this Animation. 👏👏👏🤗👍👍👍❤
I have been a copier technician since 1989. Except between 1993 to 2000 when I managed an ebGames. I have always enjoyed repairing copiers and printers. Serviced 4 copiers yesterday. Guess I've got another 15 years before my knees give out.
It wasn't just one mind, there were ground breaking inventions from many people in many fields before the first commercial printing machine was released.
4:40 The print head and paper do not both move at the same time. Print head slides across while the paper is still. Then the paper advances by the length of the print head.
« Cyan (not cyon) is blue, magenta is red and yellow is yellow »… No ! Cyan is cyan, magenta is magenta ! Unless you agree that green is blue (or maybe yellow…) or gray is black ? That said well done video.
The transfer rollers are inside the belt unit and then the image is transferred on the paper by a secondary transfer roller, usually on the side of the machine. The "paper path" is shorter.
I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.
This is very similar to how traditional printing presses work. Epson has a full color label printer that uses a pours ink through single slot which spans the width of the entire print area. No more dashing back and forth to lay down thin bars of ink. I believe they use their DuraBrite pigmented inks. Too bad this superior design isn't used on all inkjet printers. It would let the compete with the speed and quality of laser printers.
Yeah but you would need a massive print head. The size of an A4 sheet. The label printer you are talking about has a fixed head and can only do small labels. They do another wider inkjet label printer but the head has to move back and forwards
9 inch wide print head isn't what I would call "massive". Laser printers can deposit material to the width of an entire letter so why not do it with inkjets? Bi-directional printing is faster than single pass printing. But not by much. I've had printers that worked both ways.
@@SlowPCGaming1 I mean it's pretty big. No way they could be competitive with current prices but get what you are saying. You should look into the Workforce Enterprise units that they do. Those actually have a large print head but obviously those don't come cheap
Epson has an opportunity to blaze forward by making a new printhead design. Making it standard on all their machines with a single page width printer. Few moving parts to break, cheaper construction, cheaper repairs, and so forth. I have no real interest in inkjets for one key reason: clogged nozzles and cleaning cycles that use your own ink to purge blockages or cat hair off a page.
@@SlowPCGaming1 Just to let you know, the printhead that you are referring to on the label printer is an inkjet. It is just that it is fixed in place. It still sprays ink onto the media and gets blocked from time to time
Little correction. Blue color marked in this sphere Cyan, not Cyon. And particals of pigment can be not powder only (toner), but also liquid. (for instance in HP Indigo tecknology)
Question: I was taught that the paper is being entirely negatively charged, then the laser passes on the places where ink is *not* needed, releasing said charge, then the powdered ink is sticking to the negative charged places. I did a quick search and found both your and my explanation scattered around the web. Any idea why both exist? Is it 2 technologies or one is a common misconception?
The laser discharges the drum in the areas where no toner is required, at least it did on the machines I used to work on. The paper itself is not subjected to a charge per se, it is the highly charged transfer roller that attracts the toner from the drum surface towards itself, it is just that the paper is in the way so the toner sticks to the paper on its way to the fuser.
In color laser printing, the toner is not transferred directly from the cartridge to the sheet, it is transferred to the ITB, from there already with the complete image and its colors in order, it is transferred to the sheet. ITB: intermediate transfer band.
Not on all machines. When I worked on them many machines just had a transfer roller - some even just used a corona wire to pull the toner onto the paper without even just a roller.
@@mal6232 corona in a color printer? I seen one drum with 4 developers of each color and a wire for charge, seen corona for transfer or charge in monocromatic not color. You know the transfer belt has a transfer roller/s, the belt acts like a paper. I knew machines whitout drum or wires or grid, only 2 bands one for charge like a drum 4 developers, one band for transfer and abiously a transfer roller, I know that exist a variaty of configurations, this video is only explains color make in modern printers.
The toner printer works in a way I had never imagined. Really cool.
I have worked on this all my life and I have never seen a video like this! Great work! Thanks!
This is by far the best animation/explanation of printing technology I have seen so far...thanks!

the ending feels a little rushed, but the first part was pretty clear.
Yeah didn’t really get the second half and might have to watch another video to understand better
which is not clear in 2nd part?
very nice mechanism,
now I understand how fast color printing can be achieved!
Such animations are the best way of learning engineering stuff. Thank You, for providing it for free on youtube.
It's a horrifyingly complex machine that we take for granted. So fine tuned, just for our photos.
Very interesting, clear and well animated 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That was THE BEST explanation of how a Priner works that no words can describe as good as it can be and has been shown through this Animation. 👏👏👏🤗👍👍👍❤
Best and most comprehensive explanation yet. Thanks.

What a wonderful explaination, the visuals especially helped. This really helped me with my CompTIA revision! Thank you! :)
Thank god for the existence of this channel.. Brilliant
The human mind is amaziiing. It came up with all this?🤯🤯🔥🔥
It wasn't just one mind, there were ground breaking inventions from many people in many fields before the first commercial printing machine was released.
This is mush easier than i thought after reading my cs textbook. Thankyou so much
IDK why this is in recommended but for me who is studying this in Cisco IT essentials this is absolute win ❤❤
Thank you, this is the best version I found so far 😄
4:40 The print head and paper do not both move at the same time. Print head slides across while the paper is still. Then the paper advances by the length of the print head.
Thank you for this... I have been wanting to know what on earth happens inside a printer for ages...
I was not expecting a robot voice video to have the exact info i was looking for.

He is just trying to simplify.
Umm... Grey is just black...
If the logic continued Yellow should have been a Green.
@@marcos0055101 you can't simplify by calling orange red
Magenta is pink for me, change my mind
The best on youtube so far
this video was very helpful....

9 out of ten. I had to replay and use captions for some of it. Excellent 3D graphics.
Absolutely the best explanation so far.
this helps a lot for my comptia a+ exam

Very well explained💯 thanks a lot!!!!!❤️✨🔥
I did not go seeking this knowledge, but now I will never forget it. Thanks again almighty algorithm.
engineering at its finest

Incredible explanation
Perfect explanation💯👍👏
Literally magic.
Thank you so much. Very well explained video. 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Great Animation!
Very well explained.
Thank you 🤩
That was some great animation.
Wonderful Video! Very clear! Thank you so much!
Thankyou so much best explanation about Laser printer
Pek güzel anlatmışsın dostum. Teşekkürler.
1:08 is me explaining colors to a blind person
How did somebody invent this?? Insane
Superb Clear .. Supper Understandable
First of all → nice video, good explanation.
Just wanted to mention that it triggers me like 💩 that they call 'black' 'key'.
Thanks for giving such a nice information ❤😊
Beautiful illustrations.
you the best, it was easy to understand
Thank you we are glad to like your video for explaining about machines
Pattern is called a rosette when it’s registered correct. Unattractive pattern is a moiré
very informative and revealing. good job
good
work on video
Thanks for this video. I was looking for this kind of video.
This is a great video, well done!
After seeing this video, I will never punch my printer even if prints are miserable.
This video best visualizes how a laser printer works
Amazing that this is happening in my printer so fast

Great explanation ! Thanks
great work. good explanation with animation
It was very helpful for me
Never understood this until I stumbled upon this video
Cyon?? tha's not a color, but a south corean enterprise.
The color is cyan
Question: I was taught that the paper is being entirely negatively charged, then the laser passes on the places where ink is *not* needed, releasing said charge, then the powdered ink is sticking to the negative charged places.

i am in the exaclly same dilemma. If the powdered ink is positive charge or negative.
WOW. That's amazing!
Nice video , Thanks
explained well hats off

In color laser printing, the toner is not transferred directly from the cartridge to the sheet, it is transferred to the ITB, from there already with the complete image and its colors in order, it is transferred to the sheet.
ITB: intermediate transfer band.
Not all colour printers have a transfer belt, some transfer the coloured toner to the paper directly from the drum.
AMAZING
So, by watching this, laser has more wastage than inkjet?
We finally got printer lore :3
so easily understood , thx
Excellent educational video!
Nice Video, Thanks for the video
Thank you so much. Well explained
Amazing.
I have understood it.
Excellent Presentation.
As a printer technician i think this is not 100% accurate but good enough explaintion
I agree - not quite accurate, but good enough.
Understood perfectly
Great ....concept cleared....
Great Video!
amazing video 👍
thank u soo much
Excellente description!
Nice 👍🏼
Thank you for your great job.
Very well, but the toner transfer to a transfer belt before transfer to the paper with a transfer roller

sponge roller :D - it is toner feed roller
Very well explained
Your video was so informative, Shall I use this video to educate our people in our own language…?
Remember people printer companies make their money off ink, not the actual printers.
Very informative, thanks!
