摘要： A seamless intermediate transfer member has a reinforcing member in an endless configuration, a filler material such as a polymer and electrical property regulating material to regulate the electrical properties such as surface and bulk resistivity, dielectric constant and charge dissipation. The seamless intermediate transfer member also has good mechanical properties. The reinforcing member can be prepared by any suitable method such as by weaving. Filler material and electrical regulating material can be applied on, around or embedded into the reinforcing member. The member can be employed in an electrostatographic imaging system with more than one toner imaging station. The member can pick up a separate image from each individual imaging station and transfer the combined image to a suitable substrate. The seamless intermediate transfer member is capable of dissipating charge between toner imaging stations, achieving good transfer efficiencies and has a non-stretch characteristic to attain good registration of a toner image.

摘要： A cleaning station for removing toner and particulates from a fusing member has first and second cleaning rollers rollingly engaging the fusing member. Each cleaning roller has a roller surface coated with a layer of tacky toner. Each roller further defines an internal receiver for collecting excess toner and particulates, and has an aperture forming a fluid passage between the reservoir and the surface of the roller. A synchronization assembly synchronizes the rotation of the rollers so the second cleaning roller cleans the portions of the fusing member uncleaned by the first cleaning roller due to the aperture in the surface of the first cleaning roller.
