Zusammenfassung:A dual mode imaging device includes an input (220) for supplying a medium to the imaging device, the medium comprising at least one of an erasable paper, and a non-erasable paper. The erasable paper can be one of an imaged or a non-imaged erasable paper. A conventional imaging subsystem (200) is provided for imaging the non-erasable paper. A heating subsystem (250) is provided for heating an input medium to one of an erasing temperature, an imaging temperature, or a fusing temperature according to a type of job requirement. A cooling station (270) selectively cools an erased medium to an imaging temperature. A write subsystem (260) is provided for UV imaging an erased medium.
