ABSTRACT:
An electrophotographic imaging apparatus including at least a first rotatable belt support roller and a second rotatable belt support roller, each of the first and second rotatable belt support rollers having an imaginary axis parallel to and spaced from the other, a flexible electrophotographic imaging belt in contact with and supported by the first and second rotatable belt rollers, a belt driving device and at least one flexible non-stretchable drive belt extending from the belt driving device directly to each of the belt support rollers whereby activation of the belt driving device applies a pushing force directly to the drive belt in the region between the drive belt driving device and the first rotatable belt roller and simultaneously applies pulling force directly to the drive belt in the region between the driving device and the second rotatable belt support roller.
