Abstract
An electrostatic reproducing apparatus wherein a toner image formed on a toner image retaining member in the form of a belt is transferred to and fixed on a transfer material through an intermediate transfer member in the form of a roll. The intermediate transfer member is formed by providing a thin transfer layer on the outer periphery of a metal roll. The belt comprises an elastic material layer. A transfer pressure roller for pressing the back surface of the belt contacts with the intermediate transfer member, and the surface of the transfer pressure roll is covered with an elastic body.
