Abstract: In one embodiment, a fuser roll for fusing toner images onto a substrate includes a substantially rigid core member, a deformable, heat conductive base layer overlaying the surface of said core member, and an outer layer supported on the base layer. The outer layer is formed of a heat conductive, conformable amorphous metal.

Abstract: Method of developing latent magnetic images obtained by reflex thermomagnetic recording. A reflex imaging member is magnetized and a latent magnetic image formed thereon by thermoremanent exposure. The imaging member is developed by contacting it with magnetizable toner particles which have been subjected to a high intensity magnetizing field such that the toner particles retain a residual internal magnetic field after removal of the magnetizing field.

Abstract: This invention is directed to magnetic imaging method comprising creating a latent magnetic image on a reflex imaging member, transferring the latent image by thermoremanent duplication to a durable magnetic imaging member, developing the transferred image on the durable imaging member, and transferring the developed image to a receiving member. In one embodiment the present invention involves an improved magnetic imaging method which comprises (a) erasing and subsequently magnetizing a reflex magnetic imaging member with a D.C.

Abstract: Magnetic imaging method wherein a latent magnetic image is created on a magnetizable imaging member comprising a base or web containing a magnetizable component. After development of the latent image with a magnetic toner composition, the developed image is transferred by pressure contact to a receiving substrate and fixed thereto. The receiving substrate comprises a permanent member which has been treated with a binder and a crystalline plasticizer. The receiving substrate provides substantially improved efficient transfer of the toner particles from the imaging member to the receiving substrate.

Abstract: A new magnetic toner comprising a magnetic material and a resin comprising a polymeric esterification product of a dicarboxylic acid and a diol comprising a diphenol is disclosed. This toner is particularly useful in flash fusing systems.
