Claim:
A wax management system, comprising: a print positioning system having an input to receive a fused toner print having a toner image with a viewing surface that has first portions with wax globules and second portions without wax globules and a print positioning apparatus that arranges the print for wiping by a wiping system having a wiping surface that wipes the viewing surface to move at least some of the wax from the wax globules in the first portion onto the second portion; and a wax management device controller to determine when the received toner image cools to a temperature where the toner image is below a glass transition temperature of the toner and the wax is below a melting temperature for the wax and to position the received fused toner print for wiping; wherein the controller causes the wiping system to wipe the fused toner print after the controller determines that the fused toner print is at a temperature where the toner image is below a glass transition temperature of the toner and the wax is below a melting temperature for the wax.
