Abstract
A claw apparatus for a liquid electrophotographic printer prevents a sheet of paper passing through a transfer roller and the fixation roller from adhering to and curling around the transfer roller due to a peel force. In the claw apparatus, a guide portion guides the paper passing between the transfer roller and the fixation roller. A curved portion encompasses a portion of an outer circumferential surface of the transfer roller. An injection portion, formed at the curved portion, injects air through a gap formed between the curved portion and the transfer roller so that the paper passing between the transfer roller and the fixation roller can be guided toward the guide portion.
