Abstract

A toner image carried upon a substrate is fixed by placing the toner image in close juxtaposition to an absorbent web carrying a volatile toner solvent. The toner particles are softened and caused to adhere to the substrate by the action of the vapors emanating from said web. In order to protect the environs from the solvent vapors, the web is enclosed within a substantially sealed housing when laden with said solvent.
