<p>A coating formulation suitable for use in preparing thermal transfer ribbons is provided which is curable by UV radiation or visible light. The coating formulation forms thermal transfer layers that produce printed images when used in a thermal transfer printer. The coating formulation comprises a photoreactive monomer or oligomer, a photoinitiator and a sensible material. Also provided are printers which use these ribbons and processes for preparing them.</p> |
