  • Patent number: 5130217
    Abstract: An aggregate xerographic photoconductor having light sensitive squarylium dye and a binder for said dye is chosen from a mixture of bisphenol molecules to form a noncrystalline, nonpolymeric product. A layered photoconductor utilizing this generation layer formulation in conjunction with a hole transporting surface layer is described.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 17, 1991
    Date of Patent: July 14, 1992
    Assignee: Lexmark International, Inc.
    Inventors: Robert B. Champ, Donald A. Stremel
  • Patent number: 4889784
    Abstract: An organic photoconductor comprising a charge generation layer and on top thereof a charge transport layer having a higher concentration of charge transport molecules nearer the charge generation layer than in the topmost portion.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 25, 1988
    Date of Patent: December 26, 1989

  • Patent number: 4781758
    Abstract: A substantially aqueous composition for drop on demand ink jet printing comprising a fluid vehicle with greater than 50% by weight water, a water soluble dye in the range of 1-10% by weight, a lower alkylene glycol plasticizer in the range of concentration of 1-20% by weight, and in the range of 1-10% by weight, a water soluble additive which is a low molecular weight heterocyclic, bifunctional monomer or dimer in which the two functional groups are either two imide groups, or a hydantoin bearing a carboxylic acid group, with both the imide groups and the amide groups being capped with hydroxyalkylene units.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 22, 1987
    Date of Patent: November 1, 1988
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Paul L. Gendler, Alfred H. Sporer, Donald A. Stremel
  • Patent number: 4383859
    Abstract: An ink jet printing ink is first formulated in concentrated form, and in this form it is subjected to stressful operating conditions such as an elevated temperature. This stress causes particle formation. After filtration to remove these particles, the final ink formulation is prepared, including for the first time ingredients which inhibit particle formation.
