摘要:
An ink jet printing apparatus for producing a non-emissive display having a plurality of pixels on a substrate and the pixels being defined by intersecting electrodes includes a plurality of reservoirs containing fluids including solid-phase field-driven particles; a print head located in a printing position having at least one nozzle connected to a reservoir; and producing a signal associated with the position of the substrate relative to the print head. The substrate is moved in a first direction to the printing position in response to the signal. The signal causes the print head to eject drops of the fluids from the nozzles at the intersecting electrodes on the substrate and for providing relative movement in a second direction between the print head and the substrate for fluids to be transferred to subsequent intersecting electrodes. The field-driven solid-phase particles in the fluid transferred to the substrate change optical density in response to an applied electric voltage between the associated intersecting electrodes to produce the desired optical density in the non-emissive display.

A multicolor dye-donor element for thermal dye transfer capable of producing improved color gamut comprising a support having thereon a set of sequential repeating dye patches of yellow, magenta and cyan image dyes dispersed in a polymeric binder, the element also having at least one additional dye patch comprising a dye dispersed in a polymeric binder, the dye of each such additional dye patch which, when transferred to a dye image-receiving layer before or after transfer of the original yellow, magenta and cyan image dyes, has a hue measured at its maximum density which is outside the color gamut defined by the hues of the original transferred yellow, magenta and cyan image dyes by more than 5 CIELAB .DELTA.E.sub.c units.
摘要:
A hybrid imaging system is capable of using both ink jet technology and thermal dye transfer technology for producing images on a dye-receiving element of the type having a support and a polymeric dye image-receiving layer that contains an organic acid capable of reprotonating the deprotonated cationic dye from both ink jet ink and dye-donor ribbon. The imaging system includes a print path adapted to accept such a dye-receiving element, and a dye-receiving element transport mechanism adapted to advance a dye-receiving element along the print path. An ink jet imaging assemblage is located along the print path for selectively producing images on the dye-receiving element using ink jet inks having a dye dispersed in an aqueous ink, the dye being a deprotonated cationic dye which is capable of being reprotonated to a cationic dye having an N-H group which is part of a conjugated system. A thermal dye transfer imaging assemblage is located along the print path for selectively producing images on the dye-receiving element using thermal dye transfer technology and a dye-donor element.
