A printing system (10) includes at least one marking device (22A, 22B,
22C, 22D). Each of the marking devices is configured for applying images
to print media. A primary fusing device (24A, 24B, 24C, 24D) is
associated with each of the marking devices for applying a primary fusing
treatment to the applied images to form printed media. A portion of the
printed media may be only partially fused in the primary fusing
treatment. A secondary fusing device (26) receives the printed media from
the at least one marking device. The secondary fusing device and/or
primary fusing device is addressable. A control system (90) may be
operably coupled with the secondary fusing device. The control system
evaluates whether the printed media is only partially fused and instructs
the secondary fusing device to apply a further fusing treatment to the
printed media evaluated as being only partially fused.
