ABSTRACT:
A combination dual hard roll and dual elastomeric belt fuser. A pair of hard, heated fuser rolls having elastomeric belts entrained thereabout are supported such that segments of the belts are sandwiched in a nip area therebetween. The belt segments are sufficiently thick to provide belt conformability resulting in high quality fused images. One of the belts is partially wrapped about one of the rigid rolls to form an extended heating zone and a combination heat and pressure zone through which substrates carrying toner images are moved.
