Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0192968A2] The invention relates to a device for cleaning an image support by removing the remnants of color images. In order to ink the latent image on a latent image support (12), droplets (50) are transferred from a liquid layer (48, 72) to the surface of the latent image support (12) while passing through an air gap (L). According to the invention, the cleaning device is arranged on the periphery of the image support and removes the remnants of the ink that remain after transferring the image, which is inked with a liquid ink, from the surface of the image support (12, 14).
