ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method and apparatus for fixing toner images in which a copy sheet bearing unfixed toner is first passed through a pair of heated fuser rollers and is subsequently passed through surfacing rollers to provide a gloss to the toner image. In order to prevent curling of the copy sheet and blistering of the glossed image, the copy sheet is passed through a conditioner means, located between the fuser rollers and the surfacing rollers, for removing a substantial portion of the moisture from the copy sheet.
