Abstract: An imaging system is disclosed. A housing has an interior chamber and a door. A press has a base fabricated of a rigid material and with an upper surface. The press has a raisable platen with a lower surface fabricated of a resilient material. A support plate is positionable on the upper surface of the base for the receipt of an object. A transfer sheet has printing material positioned upon the object. Drive mechanisms urge the platen downwardly into contact with the transfer sheet with the object, plate and base there beneath. Heating components located within the platen generate heat. Cooling components located within the base lower the temperature of the object after the transfer of images.

Abstract: Disclosed is a shadow mask plate material which consists of an Fe-Ni-based alloy containing iron and nickel as main constituents, has an unrecrystallized texture with a grain size of 10 .mu.m or less, and is excellent in etching characteristics for forming electron beam apertures.

Abstract: An electrophoretic display device is set forth having various electrode schemes in order to modulate transmission of light through the device. The electrophoretic particles of the suspension form an imaging structure relating to an array of small unit cells or pixels which are turned on or off by appropriate electrical signals. Accordingly, the pigment particles totally cover transparent electrodes, which condition can be changed by applying the appropriate electric field to the opposite electrode. By this structure, various alphanumeric displays can be constructed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a printing device for electrophoretic recording by means of electrodes which are relatively movable with respect to an image carrier. Between the image carrier and electrodes, a liquid developer fluid is present in which the electrodes are immersed. Recording takes place under the influence of a control voltage (U.sub.ST) causing adherence of electrophoretic pigment to the image carrier. In order to enable point-like (matrix-like) recording, the surface of the image carrier is electrically conductive and the developer fluid at the area of the electrodes is continuously exchanged to maintain the electrophoretic pigment supply.
