ABSTRACT:
An apparatus which transfers a developed image from a photoconductive member to a sheet. A sheet baffle guides an advancing sheet to the photoconductive member at the transfer station. The sheet baffle has an elongated axis extending in a transverse direction to the planer surface of the photoconductive member. A sensing unit, located prior to the transfer station, generates a signal indicative of the sheet basis weight. A regulator, responsive to the signal from the sensing unit, adjusts the position of the sheet baffle to position the elongated axis thereof at a selected angle relative to the planer surface of the photoconductive member. This angle is greater for a lightweight sheet than for a heavyweight sheet.
