摘要:
A method of obtaining continuous tone reproductions in a raster scanned digital image having a given number of pixels for each halftone cell of the digital image and using four modulating levels for each pixel of the output scanner including a black and a white pixel level, the method comprising the steps of: choosing two reflectance gray levels intermediate the black and white levels to combine with the black and white pixel levels for providing quadruples, four numbers specifying the number of each kind of pixel in the halftone cell, for modulating the output scanner, determining a total number of average halftone cell gray levels to be available for the digital image, creating a list of quadruples that describe all possible average halftone cell grey levels available with the four modulating levels, and selecting a set of quadruplets from said list equal to a desired number of gray levels, said set of quadruplets selected to maximize the occurrence of black and white pixel levels in each halftone cell.

Disclosed is a two-component developer composition enabling smudge resistant images which is comprised of improved two-component contamination free developer composition comprised of (1) magnetite; (2) a polyester resin comprised of the polymeric esterification product of a dicarboxylic acid and a diol comprising a diphenol of the following formula ##STR1## wherein R is selected from substituted and unsubstituted alkylene radicals of from about 2 to about 12 carbon atoms, alkylidene radicals of from 1 to 12 carbon atoms and cycloalkylidene radicals of from 3 to 12 carbon atoms; R' and R" are selected from substituted and unsubstituted alkylene radicals of from 2 to 12 carbon atoms, alkylene arylene radicals of from 8 to 12 carbon atoms and arylene radicals; X and X' are selected from hydrogen or any alkyl radical having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms; and each n is a number of from 0 (zero) to 4; and (3) carrier particles.
摘要:
An improved process for the development and fixing of electrostatic latent images which comprises (1) generating an electrostatic latent image on a photoconductive imaging member, (2) developing this image with a toner composition comprised of toner resin particles, pigment particles, and a wax component of a molecular weight of from about 500 to about 20,000, (3) transferring the developed image to a suitable substrate, and subsequently (4) fusing the transferred image with a compliant oil fuser roll, wherein the amount of fuser oil consumed is from about one microliter to about three microliters per page of developed image.
摘要:
Disclosed are improved positively charged electrostatic toner compositions comprised of a polyblend mixture of a crosslinked copolymer composition, and a second polymer, pigment particles, a wax component of a molecular weight of from 500 to about 20,000, and a charge enhancing additive. These compositions are particularly useful in imaging systems wherein release oils, such as silicone, are not required.
