摘要:
A method of making an endless image-forming medium starting from a strip of semi-crystalline support material, which strip extends between a first and second end, wherein the ends of the strip are brought together and fused to form an endless support, and the fused ends are post-crystallized, wherein prior to the application of the image-forming layer to the support at least a portion of the support is stretched, and the stretched part of the support is heated to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the support material.

摘要:
A device and method associated therewith for transferring a toner image from an image-forming medium to a receiving material comprising: an image-forming medium, an endless movable intermediate medium provided with a top layer in contact with the image-forming medium in a first transfer zone, a heater for heating the toner image on the top layer of the intermediate medium, a biased belt which in a second transfer zone can be brought into contact with the intermediate medium, a transport device for transporting the receiving material through the second transfer zone, and a material for removing from the top layer of the intermediate medium impurities transferred thereto, by contacting the impurities with a material metal compound which breaks down the impurities.
摘要:
An imaging apparatus including a transferring device for transferring a toner image from an image-forming medium to a receiving material, comprising an endless movable intermediate provided with a top layer which in a first transfer zone is in contact with the image-forming medium, heater for heating the toner image on the top layer of the intermediate, a pressure applying roller which in a second transfer zone can be brought into contact with the intermediate, a transport roller for transporting the receiving material through the second transfer zone, wherein removal of impurities transferred by receiving materials to the top layer of the intermediate is realized by absorption of the impurities by an impurity-absorbent material within the intermediate.
