Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2008006747A1] A developer station and a method for operating a developer station are described, wherein toner particles are fed to a rotating developer roller (12). A smoothing device (34) with a smoothing element (38) is arranged in front of a transfer zone (30). The smoothing element (34) is mechanically pretensioned and exerts a pressure over the entire width of the toner layer, due to which the layer is smoothed with toner particles before the transfer of the toner particles onto an additional roller (28).
