ABSTRACT:
A fuser for fixing toner, for example, toner images, includes thermoelectric control devices for controlling temperature. Preferably, the thermoelectric control devices are used to heat the toner in a heating zone and cool the toner in a cooling zone prior to separation of the toner from a fusing surface. The cooling improves both the gloss and the separation characteristics of the toner.
