An electrographic imaging element useful for forming colored images is described. The element contains an imaging layer structure and a support structure. The support structure contains an electrically conductive polymeric release layer formed by polymerizing a mixture containing a polymerizable, ethylenically unsaturated ammonium precursor; a polymerizable, ethylenically unsaturated, organo-silicone precursor; a polymerizable precursor containing at least two polymerizable, ethylenically unsaturated functional groups; optionally, a polymerizable, ethylenically unsaturated acidic precursor containing at least one carboxylic acid group; and, optionally, a monofunctional precursor containing one polymerizable, ethylenically unsaturated functional group. The element is particularly useful for forming large size images, such as are required for banners, billboards, and other out-of-doors advertisements.

Provided is a printing medium particularly useful for inkjet printing. The printing medium is comprised of a substrate and a coating layer. The coating layer comprises porous particles, a resin binder and colloidal particles, with the colloidal particle being of a size that is greater than the size of the pores of the porous particles, but smaller than the interstitial pores created by the porous particles. The printing medium allows one to realize high optical density and high image resolution, while also offering good mechanical properties, fast drying, good waterfastness and consistent performance in different environments.
