Abstract: A method of forming a glossy image is disclosed, comprising the steps of (a) forming a clear toner particle layer with clear toner particles on an image support, (b) heating and pressing the clear toner particle layer formed on the image support, while bringing the surface of the clear toner particle layer into contact with a belt, and (c) cooling the clear toner particle layer to form a clear toner layer, wherein the clear toner particles contain a binder resin and a releasing agent and exhibit a heat quantity of fusion of not less than 3.0 J/g and not more than 9.5 J/g, and the clear toner particles meeting the following requirement: 0.5?S2/S1?1.0.

Abstract: A color toner for electro printing, which comprises from 10 to 50 parts by mass of fine inorganic pigment particles, from 5 to 40 parts by mass of a heat decomposable binder resin having an acid value of at least 5, and from 40 to 85 parts by mass of glass frit, per 100 parts by mass of the total solid content of the toner.

Abstract: Toners having toner matrix particles having conductive fine particles, a heat decomposable binder resin and glass frit, and heat decomposable organic resin fine particles attached on the surface of the toner matrix particles. The heat decomposition temperature of the organic resin in the heat decomposable organic resin fine particles is lower than the heat decomposition temperature of the heat decomposable binder resin.

Abstract: A method for forming circuit patterns having different resistances. The method includes (1) a first step of forming a first toner image using a first toner and a second toner image using a second toner, each by electrophotography, the first toner containing a resistive material, the second toner having a resistance different from that of the first toner; and (2) a second step of transferring and fixing the first toner image and the second toner image to an object to be printed such as a ceramic green sheet, to form a circuit pattern.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for permanently affixing high-quality images onto glossy substrates. Using off-the-shelf supplies and equipment, a user may print or copy any image to an imaging device utilizing toner with iron oxide to imprint the image onto a film covered transfer agent. The transfer agent is moistened, separated and the image is applied to a glossy substrate without requiring an additional cover coat. It is then fired in a kiln where the surface of the glossy substrate softens and the film of the transfer agent melts or evaporates away leaving the iron oxide pigmented image permanently fused to the glossy substrate.

Abstract: To provide a process for producing a glass plate having an electric conductor pattern excellent in adhesion to the surface of the glass plate, whereby it is not required to have a screen ready for every model and adjustment to desired electric heating performance and antenna performance is easy, and a developer therefor. A developer for electronic printing, characterized in that the ratio of Ftc/Ftp is at least 2.5, where Ftc is the adhesive force acting between one toner particle containing conductive fine particles and one carrier, and Ftp is the adhesive force acting between one toner particle containing conductive fine particles and a photoconductor.
