ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus is described for removing excess liquid from an image receptor. As the image receptor moves at a certain velocity in one direction, a vacuum source or a source of positive air pressure effects air flow in a direction parallel to and opposite that of image receptor movement. The air flow is effected at a velocity greater than that of the image receptor movement. A channel is defined adjacent the receptor surface in which a pressure gradient is established for driving the air flow and causing the liquid layer to thin.
