Abstract

See full text

A dryer apparatus for drying sheets of photosensitive material which eliminates reflective artifacts. The dryer apparatus includes a plurality of pairs of opposed drive rollers which support a sheet of photosensitive material in a generally planar sheet drying path. The pairs of opposed drive rollers are spaced longitudinally along the sheet drying path. The drive rollers are rotated to move the sheet in a first longitudinal direction along a path. A plurality of pairs of opposed dryer nozzles face the sheet drying path from each planar side thereof, with each pair of opposed dryer nozzles being between adjacent longitudinally spaced pairs of drive rollers. Each dryer nozzle includes a laterally disposed air inlet through which air is forced by a blower toward the sheet. A laterally extending guide is provided adjacent each roller for guiding the sheet along the sheet drying path. These guides create no obstruction to air flow between the air inlets of the dryer nozzles and the sheet of photosensitive material.
