Step 6: separation from the drum The elasticity of the print media and the curvature of the ITB drive roller cause the media to separate from the ITB. Figure 5-15 Separation from the drum Media ITB ITB drive roller Secondary transfer roller Fusing stage Until the fusing stage is complete, the image is not permanently affixed to the print media. The toner can be easily smudged until the heat and pressure of the fusing process fix the image to the sheet. Step 7: fusing The product uses an on-demand fusing method to fuse the toner image onto the media. The toner image is permanently affixed to the print media by the heat and pressure.
