  • Imageable element for single fluid ink
    Patent number: 6821583
    Abstract: The present invention provides an imageable element, which includes: a substrate; a crosslinked layer disposed on the substrate; and an imageable ink-receptive layer disposed on the crosslinked layer, the imageable ink-receptive layer including an ablation free imageable composition. The present invention provides methods of producing the above imaged element.

  • Method of preparation of electrostatically imaged printing plates
    Patent number: 6675710
    Abstract: A method of preparing an imaged element useful in lithographic printing comprises: (a) electrostatically imaging at least one surface of a substrate with a toner composition; (b) heating the imaged substrate a first time using non-contact heating to a first substrate temperature Tp; and (c) heating the imaged substrate a second time to a substrate temperature TF, wherein the method does not comprise a development step between steps (b) and (c). This method is used to obtain an imaged element with adequate fuser toning while avoiding substrate buckling and distortion.
