PURPOSE:To prevent powder ink adhering to an ink sheet from scattering to always keep the inside of a device clean by a method wherein the powder ink exists on the gravity accepting side of the ink sheet between a point where the ink sheet is separated from an electrode and a point where the powder ink is melted and fixed on the ink sheet. CONSTITUTION:As long as an ink sheet 3 is in contact with an electrode 7, electric charges induced onto an insulating substrate 2 on the side of the electrode 7 holds powder ink 8 adhering to the insulating substrate 2. However, the insulating substrate 2 is separated from the electrode 7 beyond a point 13 where the ink sheet is separated from the electrode, whereby an electrostatic force acting to the powder ink 8 is reduced from the ink sheet delivery position 13. But, since the powder ink 8 exists on the gravity accepting side of the insulating substrate 2 of the ink sheet 3 between the sheet delivery point 13 and a point 14 where the powder ink is melted and fixed on the ink sheet, even powder ink 82 of the second layer with a small adhesion can be melted and fixed on the insulating substrate 2 by an ink fixing means 15. Therefore, an ink sheet can be regenerated without scattering powder ink. |
