A pressure transfer mechanism is disclosed for applying evenly distributed pressure to a sheet of flexible photocopy paper overlying a planar surface of a photoconductor in an electrostatic photocopy image transfer station. The mechanism comprises a frame to which the photoconductor is rigidly held and a movable plate mounted for movement with respect to the frame and the photoconductor. A platen is disposed between the movable plate and the photoconductor which platen has a planar surface disposed adjacent and substantially parallel the photoconductor planar surface. A first set of compression springs is sandwiched between the movable plate and the frame. A second set of compression springs is sandwiched between the platen and the movable plate.
