摘要:
A method for determining color separation image data for printing for an ink jet printer. Target colors are determined as a function of location in accordance with the image data, and color separation image data is determined specifying amounts of a fluorescent ink and one or more non-fluorescent reflective inks to be combined to form the target colors when printed on an ink receiver. For target colors having a specified hue angle the amount of the fluorescent ink is decreased as a density of the target color increases beyond a threshold density level.

A composite color toner image can be enhanced in a printed receiver material by having a separate fluorescing magenta toner image applied over it to provide a “pinkish” fluorescing effect. This separate fluorescing magenta toner image is obtained using visible fluorescing dry magenta toner particles, each of which has a polymeric binder phase and a visible fluorescing colorant that emits at one or more peak wavelengths of from 510 nm and to and including 590 nm. The covering power of the fused visible fluorescing magenta toner particles in the enhanced composite color toner image is at least 350 cm2/g to and including 1100 cm2/g, and the covering power of each of the non-fluorescing cyan, non-fluorescing yellow, non-fluorescing magenta, and non-fluorescing black toner particles in the enhanced composite color toner image is at least 1500 cm2/g to and including 2300 cm2/g.

A method for producing a raised print on a receiver includes receiving image data and height data. The height data specify that raised printing should be produced in non-first-color region of the image data. Separation data are determined for a clear toner, a light toner having the first color, and at least two additional colored toners. The separation data for the clear toner is determined in response to the height data and the separation data for the light toner is determined in response to the image data and the height data so that the clear and light-toner separations specify that respective toners be deposited one atop the other in the non-first-color region. Respective toner images are deposited on the receiver, each corresponding to respective separation data. The deposited toner is fixed to the receiver member.

Methods are provided for determining toner colors to be combined to form a target color at a location on a receiver. In one aspect, a method includes determining a fluorescent toner color to be provided at the location based upon the density and hue angle of the target color; determining one or more reflective toner colors to be provided with the determined fluorescent toner color at the location to form the target color and the amount of the fluorescent toner color is decreased as the target color density increases.

A black toner composition is disclosed. The composition includes toner particles prepared by a chemical process of manufacture including carbon black pigment, a first addition polymer comprising carboxylic acid groups along the polymer backbone, and a thermoplastic second polymer binder distinct from the first addition polymer. In the composition, the first polymer has an Acid Value of from 30 to 220 and is present at a weight ratio of greater than 1:2 relative to the amount of carbon, and at a relatively lower weight percent than the second polymer.

Fluorescing highlights can be provided in selected portions of non-color image areas of a printed toner image using fluorescing dry toner particles, such as fluorescing magenta and fluorescing yellow dry toner particles. Before fixing, each fluorescing dry toner particle comprises a polymeric binder phase and a fluorescing colorant that emits at one or more λmax wavelengths of at least 420 nm and up to and including 690 nm and that is dispersed within the polymeric binder phase.

Toners are provided. In one aspect a toner comprises, particles of at least one toner resin having particle diameters greater than about 20 microns, a first particulate addenda on the toner particles having a BET surface area of less than 60 m2/g of the toner particle; and a second particulate addenda on the toner particles having a BET surface of more than 120 m2/g.

The invention describes a method to control differential gloss of halftone areas produced using substantially clear or low-pigmented toner. It is an objective of this invention to provide a method which allows to produce digital watermarks on paper without being limited in the gloss properties of the toner, the paper or and selected fusing technology. The present invention relates to a method producing clear, low density or highdensity watermarks using Glossmark technology using low-pigmented toner or clear toner. Glossmark technology is for controlling the differential gloss of an image using the steps selecting a first halftone image having a first anisotropic structure, selecting a second halftone image having a second structure different from that of the first halftone, applying the first halftone to at least some portion of the halftone image and applying the second halftone to another portion of the halftone image.

Images produced by electrophotography are often subjected to harsh conditions, such as high temperature and high relative humidity conditions. Prints when subjected to face-to-face stacking under these conditions tend to stick and are difficult to separate without damage. Ethylene-bis-stearamide is incorporated in a protective toner formulation employing a toner binder having a higher glass transition temperature than that of the conventional CYMK colored image toners employed to provide a protective layer in fused images. Further, ethylene-bis-stearamide does not interfere with typical oil release additives used in fuser rollers. By combining ethylene-bis-stearamide with polyalkane waxes having a weight average molecular weight of equal to or greater than 2000 and a poly dispersity of less than 2.0, addition protection can be realized.
