ABSTRACT:
A low-profile electrophotographic copying machine employing an electrophotographic imaging system including an electrophotographic belt transportable through plural work stations at which the belt is charged, exposed to a projected image to establish a latent image, developed with suitable toner and optionally transferred to a carrier medium from a source thereof and fixed. The apparatus is housed so as to maximize conservation of space and to minimize the vertical dimension thereof. The belt has closely proximate reaches horizontally oriented and parallel except at the developing station. The apparatus uses a folded optical projection system whereby the image from a horizontally arranged document on a platen is projected by way of a pair of oppositely inclined mirrors through an intermediate lens system to the lower reach of the electrophotographic belt, which is positioned at about the same level as the platen. The developing station is disposed in the neck of the projection system between the expanded beams of the projection system.
