ABSTRACT:
A fuser assembly including a pair of rollers in nip relation to transport a receiver member along a travel path therebetween and permanently fix a marking particle image to a such a transported receiver member, a skive mechanism for stripping a receiver member adhering to a fuser assembly roller from such roller, and a mounting for the skive mechanism. The skive mechanism mounting includes a support for the skive mechanism. The skive mechanism is selectively moved about the support mechanism into operative relation with the roller of the fuser assembly adjacent to the travel path. The skive mechanism is urged in a direction, in opposition to the selective movement of the skive mechanism, from operative relation with the roller of the fuser assembly toward a location remote from the travel path, whereby clearance of a receiver member jam in the fuser assembly is facilitated.
