Abstract: An example of a liquid bonding agent, for a liquid ink including a wax emulsion in an amount less than 1% actives, includes a calcium salt, the wax emulsion, an acetylenic surfactant, a glycol, and a balance of water. The wax emulsion is present in the liquid bonding agent in an amount ranging from greater than 0% actives to about 2% actives. The liquid bonding agent is to be digitally printed with a thermal inkjet printhead on a substrate under the liquid ink.

Abstract: An inkjet printing system is described herein. In an implementation, the inkjet printing system includes a fixer dispensing unit for applying a fixer composition on a substrate and an ink dispensing unit for applying an ink composition on the substrate. The fixer composition includes a metal salt in a range of about 5% to 10% by weight. Further, the ink composition includes a liquid vehicle having a non-volatile organic solvent, a colorant dispersed in the liquid vehicle, and a latex binder dispersed in the liquid vehicle.
