Electrographic printer or copier with two print mechanisms for printing onto material path with direction change

摘要

The printer has at least two printing mechanisms (11,12), with a transport mechanism for transporting continuous carrier material (1). There is a direction changing device (5) that changes the carrier material direction by a defined angle. A continuous, intermediate tape-like medium (2) acquires toner images running parallel to the carrier material, at transfer points (3,4) on both sides of the direction changer. Both printing mechanisms apply toner images to the intermediate medium, which are transferred to the carrier material at the transfer points.
