The part of laser printer that applies a positive charge to the paper in order to attract the toner particles is known as transfer roller.

What is a laser printer:

A laser printer is a kind of printer that uses the electrostatic digital printing process to perform printing. It makes use of the static electricity and toner powder in place of liquid ink.

The toner is applied to specific areas which are dependent on the charge difference created or on the static electricity.

Following are the components of a laser printer:

  • Scanning unit:

        This unit of a laser printer generally consists of a laser diode, a

        scanning motor and a polygon mirror.
        It also consists of two-beam alignment lenses.

  • Cartridge unit:

        This unit of laser printer consists of three drums, namely primary

        charging roller (PCR), organic photoconductive drum (OPC) , and

        image transfer roller (ITR).
        The transfer roller is also present at a close vicinity of the  

        printer's  toner cartridge.

  • Fuser assembly unit:

        This unit of laser printer consists of a pressure roller and a fuser                roller, where the fuser roller assembly consists of a heating

        element.

Therefore, the transfer roller unit of a laser printer applies a positive charge to the paper that attracts the toner particles to it.
