A corrugating air knife (400) for stripping a sheet (52) from a fusing member (62) includes a manifold connected to an air supply source and having an outlet (401) which directs a flow of air across a sheet path adjacent the fuser (62). The air knife further includes ribs (252) including outlets (402) through which, air flows to create localized air flows which, when directed at the sheet (52), cause it to corrugate as it separates from the fuser (62). The corrugation increases the beam strength and prevents wrap jams. |
