Abstract
Apparatus for forming an image on a receiver in response to a digital image includes print heads for transferring colorant to the receiver. The receivers are stored in a receiver supply device in a humidity controlled environment. A receiver transport mechanism moves the receiver to a position where the print heads transfer colorant to the receiver to form an image on the receiver.
