ABSTRACT:
A series of toner images are formed on an endless belt having a splice. The toner images are transferred to a receiving sheet which is fed between the belt and a rotatable transfer member. The transfer member is cleaned by transferring toner back to the belt. Excess toner transfer from the splice of the belt to the transfer roller is obviated by either making the transfer member of a size that the toner will transfer back at an interframe area or applying a lacquer or other similar material to this splice to prevent the pickup of toner initially.
