Abstract
A squeegee roller cleaning apparatus of a liquid electrophotographic printer includes a squeegee roller and a cleaning roller. The squeegee roller is mounted to be operative for movement in order to selectively contact a photoreceptor web circulating along an endless path. The cleaning roller includes at least one blade member that is spirally twisted on the outer circumference of a rotary rod so as to contact the squeegee roller by the movement of the squeegee roller to remove a hold-up volume of developer. Thus, contamination of the photoreceptor web and the transfer roller can be reduced so that the quality of the printed image can be improved.
