Abstract: A printing device for recording information in the form of toner images comprising a moveable image-forming medium on a support, the surface of which forms a dielectric layer; an image-forming station disposed along the trajectory of the image-forming medium having a magnetic roller with an electrically conductive nonmagnetic outer sleeve with magnets disposed inside the sleeve; a means for supplying electrically conductive toner particles to a linear zone in the image-forming station; and a plurality of electrodes for generating an electric field corresponding to a desired image pattern, said electrodes extending in the direction of movement of the image-forming medium and disposed so as to be insulated from one another and covered by a dielectric layer wherein each electrode can be actuated by a voltage source and each electrode can generate an electric field across the dielectric layer over part of the zone wherein image formation takes place when in the image-forming station.
