Abstract

An apparatus and method for transferring xerographically printed information on a piece of paper (102) to an ultraviolet sensitive medium (101). The paper (102) can be optionally treated with a chemical (207) to enhance ultraviolet light transmission through the paper (102). The paper (102)/medium (101) assembly may be advanced via nip rollers (432, 433) at a predetermined rate so as to optimize time of exposure to the ultraviolet light source (410).
