Abstract

See full text

A printer includes a transport belt having an electrically non-conducting surface adapted to transport a receiver medium along a transport path from an upstream position to a downstream position. A charging subsystem is configured to add charge to the transport belt or the receiver medium, thereby providing an electrostatic holding force. An inking subsystem is positioned downstream of the charging subsystem and deposits a pattern of ink on the receiver medium. A dryer positioned downstream of the inking subsystem is adapted to dry the inked receiver medium. A recharging subsystem positioned downstream of the dryer is configured to restore at least some charge dissipated while the receiver medium is transported between the charging subsystem and the recharging subsystem.
