Abstract
A machine uses electrophotography to produce panels of images for transfer to a continuous web of image receiving media. The images are transferred to the media under control of signals synchronized with media movement under a transfer structure which has a width sufficient to accommodate image transfer immediately prior to stopping of the media as well as immediately after restart of the media movement. The media is stopped with boundaries between sheets within the transfer zone.
