摘要:
A method for achieving a pre-selected gloss in an electrographic image printing system, by choosing the appropriate combination of fusing speed and fusing temperature.As a result of the above, the homogeneity in gloss and color of one image and the homogeneity of different images, compared to each other, can be improved significantly.
摘要:
A fusing station of an electrographic apparatus fixes in a single pass a duplex resinous powder color image to a support material as the support material is moved over a predetermined path through the fusing station. The fusing station employs a symmetrical fixing operation on both sides of the support material. The fusing station applies hot air to both sides of the support material in substantially equal flows. The hot air is heated by heating sources with substantially identical operational characteristics such that the flows of hot air are heated to substantially equal temperatures on both sides of the support material.
