Imaging system with intermediate transfer member

摘要

Apparatus for image transfer including an image bearing surface and an image receiving surface arranged for relative movement along a pathway whereby portions of the image bearing surface and the image receiving surface sequentially come into propinquity for image transfer therebetween and subsequently move out of propinquity following image transfer therebetween, potential impression device associated with at least one portion of at least one of the image bearing surface and the image receiving surface for impressing a potential on the at least one portion, and device for energizing the potential impression device only when the at least one portion is located at a predetermined location along the pathway, thereby to provide desired image transfer enhancement.
