An apparatus (10) and method for cleaning particles from a moving imaging surface (11). Backers (160,170) are retracted from a movable photoconductive belt (10) to release cleaning contact between the brushes (190,195) and the moving imaging surface during development of image-on-image in the multi-pass color printing cycle. After transfer of the multi-color developed image, the backers move into contact with one side of the photoconductive belt causing the moving imaging surface, on the other side of the photoconductive belt, to contact the cleaner brushes. The brushes clean the moving imaging surface of the photoconductive belt. The brushes are released from contact with the moving imaging surface when the backers are retracted, allowing the image-on-image multi-pass process to begin again. The brushes engage and disengage the photoconductive belt in the interdocument zone (i.e. between developed images) of the moving surface. <IMAGE> |
