Abstract: An improved electrophotographic printer is provided for printing on sheet media, and for joining two or more sheets of sheet media together within the print engine. A first sheet can be imaged with “standard” information and/or indicia, and can also have one or more strips of toner applied at predetermined locations. The first sheet is then run back to the print engine while a second (virgin) sheet of print media is picked from an input tray at a time that will cause both sheets to run through the print engine simultaneously, either exactly at the same time, or with some offset spacing. The two sheets will become joined or affixed to one another at locations in which the toner strips are of sufficient size and density, and will be output together as if stapled, or sealed, together.
