My Minolta CF 2001 Color Copier
I haven’t really documented anything about my work with copiers until now so i decided to do a video on my Minolta CF 2001 printer/copier/scanner system.
This fast compact system utilizes Minolta’s tandem print engine that uses 4 individual LED print heads, imaging units and toner feeders to assemble the image on a transfer belt before being transfered to the paper and fused in an oil-roller type fusing unit.
