Abstract
Imaging apparatus includes a primary image member upon which first and second toner images are formed and an intermediate image member to which the first toner image is transferred. Duplex imaging is accomplished by transferring the second toner image from the primary image member to one side of a receiving sheet and the first toner image from the intermediate image member to the other side of the sheet. The intermediate image member extends toward a fuser to transport the receiving sheet to the fuser while the first image is being transferred. Both images are transferred to the receiving sheet while not being backed by the other image member.
