SHEET MOISTURIZING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING SYSTEM

摘要

A sheet moisturizing apparatus includes a moisturizing section, a water feeding section and a control section. The moisturizing section includes a pair of moisturizing rollers that moisturizes a sheet and a driver that rotates the pair of moisturizing rollers. The water feeding section feeds water to an outer peripheral surface of the pair of moisturizing rollers. The control section controls the water feeding section to feed water only to a predetermined part of the outer peripheral surface of at least one of the pair of moisturizing rollers, and thereafter allows the rotating pair of moisturizing rollers to pinch the sheet so as to bring the predetermined part into contact with a sheet finishing area of the sheet.
