摘要:
A method for printing an image on a substrate by image-wise depositing, toner particles on the substrate, is disclosed, comprising: image-wise depositing dry toner particles on the substrate forming a first band-like portion of the image, conditioning the first band-like portion while keeping the substrate at a temperature equal to or lower than 100° C. and further image-wise depositing toner particles on the substrate so as to form at least one other band-like portion of such image, the at least one other band-like portion of the image being adjacent to the first band-like portion. Preferably the method is used for printing substrates with an area equal to or larger than 0.25 m2.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a liquid toner composition suited for development of electrostatic charge images, magnetic patterns or DEP (Direct Electrostatic Printing). More specifically the present invention relates to a specific liquid toner composition allowing transfusing of the toner image from a temporary carrier to the final substrate at low temperature.
