PURPOSE: To reduce occurrence of wrinkles in a finishing belt used in a device to remove an image forming material equipped with a drying device in which a liquid is imparted to an image holding body where the image forming material is deposited to remove the image forming material and then the image holding body is dried, by constituting the belt of an aromatic polyamide fiber.
CONSTITUTION: As for the material of a belt 402 to press a paper sheet, a cloth comprising an aromatic polyamide fiber is used. As for the aromatic polyamide fiber to constitute the cloth, especially an aromatic polyamide fiber having meta-position bond of aromatic groups in the skeleton (meta-aromatic polyamide fiber) is preferable. Since a meta-aromatic polyamide fiber is excellent in softness and smoothness, wrinkles in a cloth comprising a metaaromatic polyamide fiber can be easily avoided when the cloth is wound on rollers under proper tension. Thus, the finished state of the transfer sheet 1 is satisfactorily maintained.
