Inkjet imaging methods, imaging methods and hard imaging devices

摘要

Hard imaging methods and devices are described. In at least some examples, a method includes ejecting a plurality of droplets of a liquid marking agent corresponding to the image to be formed, wherein the droplets of the liquid marking agent individually comprise a plurality of ink particles. The droplets are received upon a transfer member, and after the receiving, at least the ink particles are transferred from the transfer member to media to form a hard version of the image using the media.

1. An imaging method comprising:
supplying an additive resin material onto a media; receiving a plurality of droplets of a liquid marking agent from a printer onto a transfer member, the droplets of the liquid marking agent individually comprising a plurality of ink particles suspended in a liquid carrier; after the supplying and separately from the supplying, first heating the additive resin material on the media; and after the supplying and after the first heating, using the heated additive resin material on the media to facilitate transferring at least the ink particles from the transfer member to the media to form a hard version of an image using the media.
