PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To efficiently eliminate carrier solvent by making use of a phenomenon where toner particles (resin component) are integrated and a phenomenon where carrier solvent (liquid component) is separated when the toner particles are heat melted. SOLUTION: In this device, a toner image is transferred on an intermediate transfer belt 24 from a photoreceptor 10, toner particles transferred to the intermediate transfer belt 24 are heated and at the same time melt transferred to a printing medium. After a toner layer on the intermediate transfer belt 24 is heat melted, a carrier eliminating roll 29 is provided in that position. Furthermore, while the toner layer on the intermediate transfer belt 24 is being heat melted, a carrier eliminating roll 28 to eliminate the carrier solvent on the intermediate transfer belt 24 is provided in this heat melting position. |
