A wet type electrophotography apparatus according using a non-volatile, high-viscosity, high-concentration liquid toner as a developing solution, and including a photoconductive medium on which an electrostatic latent image is formed, a prewetting device for coating the surface of the photoconductive medium with a film of prewetting solution, a developing device, an intermediate transfer medium for transferring the toner particles deposited on the photoconductive medium, a pressure roller rotating in contact with the intermediate transfer medium for transferring a printing medium while forcing the printing medium onto the intermediate transfer medium, and a heating device for heating locally the surface of the intermediate transfer medium at a location immediately before the intermediate transfer medium comes in contact with the pressure roller. The wet-type electrophotography apparatus can efficiently heat and fuse the toner transferred on the intermediate transfer medium without causing thermal effects on the photoconductive medium.
