A wet portion of a paper machine, including a wire section and a pressing section has a plurality of roll presses. Each roll press includes two rolls defining a press nip. A water impervious belt having a smooth, non-porous surface is disposed in a continuous loop about at least two roll press rolls disposed consecutively with respect to a direction of conveyance of a paper web through the machine. Each press roll is associated with at least one counter roll or one shoe roll defining first and second press nips of the pressing section. The belt deflects about 180 DEG about each of the press rolls.
