Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0472134A2] In order to increase the sharpness of an image on paper, as transferred from a toned ferroelectric image carrier, the toned image layer is transferred onto the paper at a temperature which is at least 0.3 DEG C lower than the temperature at which toner particles were applied onto the ferroelectric surface of the image carrier. The second, lower transfer temperature can be lower by a few degrees C than the temperature at which the toner particles are applied. When a plurality of copies of the image of an image carrier are made, the image carrier is reheated up to the application temperature before the surface is once again toned. <IMAGE>
