ABSTRACT:
A mechanism for cleaning the back side of an image bearing dielectric support web used in an electrostatographic reproduction apparatus, the dielectric support web, having a front side movable into operative association with a plurality of electrographic processing stations to form a transferable marking particle image thereon. The back side cleaning mechanism have a catch tray for collecting debris removed from the back side of the dielectric support web. A cleaning blade is attached to the catch tray so as to engage the back side of the dielectric support web at a predetermined angle to wipe such back side thereof. A magnetic scavenger is attached to the catch tray, in spaced relation with the cleaning blade, so as to remove magnetic particles from the back side of the dielectric support web.
