Abstract (en)
[origin: US6272311B1] The fusing assembly in an electrophotographic copier has a paper travel path passing between a pair of opposed air cooling plenums. Each plenum has an air supply plate confronting the travel path with slots for directing cooling air onto the moving paper. The lower plenum plate includes upstanding ribs parallel to the paper travel path for guiding the moving paper and spacing the paper from the plate to improve airflow by decreasing airflow impedance.
