ABSTRACT:
A system for adding moisture to a copy sheet is disclosed. The toner fixation step of electrostatographic reproduction desiccates paper, which may lead to the formation a wave along the sheet edge. The invention uses a pair of porous rolls defining a nip to transfer additional moisture to the copy sheet as it is passed through the nip. The added moisture prevents edge wave formation.
