Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1156390A2] The photocopying machine for developing an electrostatic image has a photo-conducting drum (12) with a magnetic brush in contact with the photo-conducting drum. The magnetic brush deposits a mixture of toner and hard-magnetic toner particles on the photo-conducting drum. An Independent claim is made for a support for a toner unit (10) with a support bar and a sliding bar that engages in the support bar. The sliding bar is shaped so that is holds the toner unit and a pair of mounting pins are used to mount the toner unit in relation to the sliding bar and a mounting member that brings the toner unit into register steadiness using the mounting pins.
