ABSTRACT:
A multi-mode copying or reproduction apparatus. The apparatus includes a movable, overlong flexible photoconductive belt having image exposure, developing, transfer and cleaning stations operatively disposed about the belt circumference. A two chamber vacuum tensioner is used to collect the extraneous belt length. A raster scanner capable of both writing and reading images on the belt segment laying between the vacuum chambers is provided, together with an auxiliary belt driver for moving the aforementioned belt segment at a speed compatible with that of the raster scanner. An auxiliary charging device, and operators for disengaging selected xerographic components permit selective processing of images written or read by the raster scanner.
