ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for applying particulate toner to an image-defining tacky surface upon a photo-element includes a hopper for receiving a particulate toner therein, the hopper being disposed above a transport path along which the photo-element is conveyed. The hopper has a slot extending substantially transversely to and communicating with the transport path. The apparatus is characterized by a reciprocating device for vertically moving the hopper in a reciprocating fashion toward and away from the transport path to impart vibrational energy to the toner to fluidize the same and cause the toner to flow through the slot to form a toner pool, from which pool toner is depositable on a photo-element being transported therebeneath. A toning pad attached to the hopper pats into the photo-element toner that has been deposited from the pool onto the photo-element.
