Abstract (en)

A device for direct electrostatic printing wherein the distance between the printhead structure and the surface of the charged toner conveyor (a CTC) is kept constant by contacting the frame carrying the printhead structure with the surface of the CTC. The frame can be kept directly in contact with the surface of the CTC or over spacers inserted between the frame and the surface of the CTC. <IMAGE>
