ABSTRACT:
A roller having an outer textured cylindrical surface applies, by means of a constant current, a non-uniform charge pattern over the surface of a sheet of material such as, for example, sheets of paper or plastic as used in xerographic transparencies and/or over the surface of a conveying structure, such as a conveying belt, which moves the sheet material to, through, and/or beyond a xerographic transfer zone. The charge applied over the sheet material is of a polarity opposite to that of the charge applied to the conveying structure so that an electrostatic tacking force holds the sheet material on or adheres the sheet material to the conveying structure. Preferably the charge is applied over the surfaces of the sheet material and conveying structure which face each other.
