METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THERMAL FUSING

摘要

A fuser apparatus for use with coated media to encapsulate and bond with ink-jet oriented inks. The apparatus includes one or more endless belts to create durable images with a smooth or textured finish on media coated with a fusible coating. In one preferred embodiment, two endless belts are used, each with a different surface texture, to provide the user with two fusible coating texture options, depending upon which way the coated media (e.g. paper) is placed upon the fuser.
