Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a gap adjusting structure of a printing device, and more particularly to a developing gap adjusting structure of a photoelectric imaging printing device. [Prior Art] Photoelectric The image-printing device performs image printing by means of electrophotography (EPG). Photoelectric imaging has several steps, including at least charging, exposure, developing, transferring, and fusing. When the printing device prints images, first A uniform charge is applied to the surface of a photoconductor by means of a charger, which is a power-discharging step. Then, an exposure step is performed, and the image to be printed is converted into an optical signal by a light-emitting diode (LED) or a laser, and is irradiated onto the photosensitive element with uniform charge to generate a Corresponding electrostatic latent image. After the latent image required for printing is formed on the photosensitive member, the _% step is performed. The toner on the developing device is attached to the photosensitive member by the electrostatic force to develop the electrostatic latent image. After the development step is completed, the adsorbed toner on the photosensitive member can be transferred to a printing paper or other substrate medium by a conventional method, which is a transfer step. Finally, a hot roller and a pressure roller are used to fix the toner on the paper and print the fixing step. 6 1298294 Due to the non-contact developing device, the toner can use electrostatic force to jump the developing gap between the developing roller and the photosensitive member, so that the toner adheres to the latent image area on the photosensitive member. Therefore, the control of the development gap will affect the quality of the image. The photosensitive element in the prior art may be an organic photoreceptor belt (〇 belt PC belt), and the photoreceptor belt is sleeved on a struts. Since the support structure of the photoreceptor belt uses the screw as the locking member, the support structure is affected by the stress when the screw is locked, and the shape is only generated, so that the surface of the photoreceptor belt fluctuates when rotated. After the assembly roller (devei〇ping r〇ller) in the developing device is assembled, it can inevitably cause a slight error with the support structure of the developing roller, which affects the developing gap between the developing roller and the photosensitive member. Precision. Both of the above cases cause the developing gap of the photosensitive belt and the developing roller to be inconsistent, so that the toner cannot be uniformly adsorbed on the photosensitive member, thereby affecting the quality of the image. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a gap adjusting structure for a printing apparatus for maintaining a developing gap between a photosensitive member and a developing roller, thereby improving the quality of toner image formation. ▲ Another object of the present invention is to provide a roller gap blanking device for a developing device to compensate for the difference between the developing roller and the developing gap, thereby improving the roller support to contact the photosensitive device to position the developing roller and the photosensitive The precision of the development gap between devices.

Each of the holding members has a plurality of positioning holes arranged in the protrusions of the corresponding positioning brackets, wherein the positioning holes are engaged with the protrusions to define displacement of the photosensitive member support members in the flat direction. The material of the photosensitive member support member may be an alloy, a metal or a plastic, and is preferably an anodized alloy. Each toner g 1298294 includes a roller gap adjustment device, and each roller gap adjusting device includes a developing roller and a roller support frame.
