<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrophotographic device reducing the quantity of curl compared with conventional constitution even if applying heat treatment by a heat roller at a fixing part. SOLUTION: A curl quantity reducing device serving as an installation base of a device body 1 is provided on the lower side of the device body 1. An elevator 6 for stacking paper 8, and a lowering stop sensor 7 and a lifting stop sensor 9 for the elevator 6 are provided at the lower part inside the curl quantity reducing device 2. In reusing the blank paper side of spent paper 8, a sheaf of paper 8 is set on the lowered and stopped elevator 6, and the elevator 6 is moved up to hold the sheaf of paper 8 between the upper face of the elevator 6 and the inner top face 10 of the curl quantity reducing device 2 and to compress the paper 8. This state is kept for a fixed time to reduce the curl quantity of the paper 8.</p> |
