<p>ELECTROGRAPHIC FUSING APPARATUS AND METHOD Loose toner particles carried by a flexible support are fused thereto by cylindrically curling the support about the axis of an elongated source of radiant energy, such as a flashlamp, and momentarily energizing the source while the toner-bearing support is curled thereabout. A transport mechanism, adapted for use in a high-speed recording apparatus, advances a toner-bearing sheet along a circular path such that the toner-bearing surface of the sheet is untouched and continuously faces toward the center of curvature of the path.</p> |
