ABSTRACT:
A reliable non-sliding transfusing assembly is provided for receiving liquid toner images from an image bearing member. The transfusing assembly includes a continuous intermediate transfer belt forming a belt loop and having an inner surface and a toner image carrying outer surface; a first backing roller having a first diameter and mounted into contact with the inner surface of the belt loop for forming a toner image receiving nip between the belt loop and an image bearing member; and a second backing roller mounted oppositely from the first backing roller and into contact with the inner surface of the belt loop for forming a transfusing nip between the belt loop and an external roller. Importantly, the second backing roller consists of a large drive drum for the belt, and has a second diameter many times greater than the first diameter of the first backing roller so as to produce high quality transfused toner images by preventing belt sliding and slippage, as well as image smearing that would other wise result from a relatively small diameter drive roll.
