ABSTRACT:
A Liquid Immersion Development, LID, reproduction machine having a moving liquid toner image carrying surface, includes an excess carrier liquid removing apparatus. The excess carrier liquid removing apparatus includes a housing defining a chamber, and an opening through the housing into the chamber for mounting against the liquid toner image carrying surface. The excess carrier liquid removing apparatus also includes a roller mounted rotatably to the housing and within the chamber for forming an image processing nip gap, that has an image entrance side and an image exit side, with the liquid toner image carrying surface. The excess carrier liquid removing apparatus further includes an air pressure creating device associated with the chamber for creating an air pressure differential within the chamber and across the image processing nip from one to the other of the entrance and the exit sides, in order to desirably affect flow of carrier liquid through the nip with minimal carrier liquid vaporization and with no liquid toner image disturbance.
