  • Publication number: 20140295333
    Abstract: The presently disclosed embodiments relate generally to image forming systems comprising imaging apparatus members and toner compositions. More specifically, the present embodiments relate to specific toner compositions for use with electrophotographic imaging members comprising an overcoat layer protecting the imaging member surface and a contact type charging device, such as a “bias charge roll” (BCR). The toner compositions comprise a combination of additives that provide an image forming system that does not suffer from the commonly observed deletion and imaging member wear issues.

  • Publication number: 20010045971
    Abstract: Disclosed is a process for depositing marking material onto a substrate which comprises (a) providing a propellant to a head structure, said head structure having a channel therein, said channel having an exit orifice with a width no larger than about 250 microns through which the propellant can flow, said propellant flowing through the channel to form thereby a propellant stream having kinetic energy, said channel directing the propellant stream toward the substrate, and (b) controllably introducing a particulate marking material into the propellant stream in the channel, wherein the kinetic energy of the propellant particle stream causes the particulate marking material to impact the substrate, and wherein the particulate marking material comprises particles which comprise a resin and a colorant, said particles having an average particle diameter of no more than about 7 microns and a particle size distribution of GSD equal to no more than about 1.
