ABSTRACT:
In a copier wherein the fuser rolls are positioned closer than the dimensions of the copy sheet from the image transfer area, speed mismatch compensation between the fuser roll nip and the initial image support surface is provided by intentionally driving the fuser roll nip at a different pre-set velocity to form a buckle in the intermediate portion of the copy sheet. The buckle is controlled by a baffle arrangement which allows the buckle to develop in the copy sheet prior to entering the fuser. The buckle is used to absorb the speed mismatch between the initial image support surface and the fuser and thereby prevent smearing of the unfused image on the copy sheet.
