<p>An image recording device and method for recording an image onto an information carrier. The intermediate image receiving member is flexible under a tension and has a first face and a second face. A pigment image is formed on the first face of the intermediate image receiving member, which pigment image is subsequently transferred to an information carrier. An intermediate image receiving member bending means is included to enable the intermediate image receiving member to be bent a predetermined angle in the vicinity of the printhead structure in such a way that, in combination with the tension of the intermediate image receiving member, a stabilization force component is created which is equal to or greater in magnitude than a field force component created by an electrical field used to transport toner particles and acting on the intermediate image receiving member, to thereby oppose distance fluctuations between the intermediate image receiving member and the printhead structure which is caused by the field force component on the intermediate image receiving member.</p> |
