Abstract
A charge neutralizer includes a first power source, a first charge neutralizer, a second power source, and a second charge neutralizer. The first power source outputs a first neutralizing bias having a first polarity. The first charge neutralizer is coupled to the first power source to remove charge having a second polarity opposite to the first polarity of the first neutralizing bias on one face of a recording medium. The second power source outputs a second neutralizing bias having the second polarity. The second charge neutralizer is coupled to the second power source to remove charge having the first polarity on another face of the recording medium.
