<p>Imaging systems and methods are described. In one aspect, an ink layer (30) having an electrorheological fluid composition including a suspension of colorant particles dispersed in an electrically insulating carrier fluid is formed on a surface of an electrically conducting substrate (20). A charge image is projected onto the ink layer (30) to selectively form charge-stiffened regions adhering to the electrically conducting substrate (20) and representing respective regions of the projected charge image. Non-charge-stiffened ink layer components are physically separated from the charge-stiffened regions.</p> |
