<p>A sheet curling/decurling mechanism for decurling copy sheets exiting the fuser apparatus of a copier is disclosed as having a compliant belt of pliable material, a curling roller forming a penetration nip with the compliant belt, the penetration nip being adapted to curl sheets to such an amount as to over curl a sheet leaving the fuser appartus. A decision gate is arranged and shaped to direct the sheet into one of two paths depending upon the degree of over curl. In one path, when slight curl is experienced, a curling device is arranged to compensate for the slight curl. In the other path, when a high degree of curl is present, a curling device is positioned to effect a high degree of reverse curl.</p> |
