Title
Image Quality Improvement By Clear Toner In Xerography
Abstract
A uniform layer of a clear toner was applied to full color xerographic images to improve image quality. Xerographic print differ from lithographic prints in the surface structure, because xerography deposits toner on uncoated paper in much higher mass density than lithographic inks. Therefore, the gloss of prints strongly depends on the image density. We tried to cover a full color image with a uniform layer of the clear toner to provide better print appearance. By this method, the specular gloss became much uniform and the grainy noise remarkably reduced. Noise reduction was attributed to the decrease of gloss fluctuation with image surface flattening and prevention of image disturbance during transfer and fusing. The subjective impression of a pictorial image also improved.
