A fuser fluid composition is disclosed, including a non-fluorinated functional silicone fluid, and a non-fluorinated non-functional silicone fluid, where the non-fluorinated functional silicone fluid is present in the fuser fluid composition in an amount of from about 1 wt % to about 30 wt % based on a total weight of the fuser fluid composition, and the non-fluorinated non-functional silicone fluid is present in the fuser fluid composition in an amount of from about 50 wt % to about 99 wt % based on a total weight of the fuser fluid composition. The non-fluorinated functional silicone fluid may include an amine-functional group. A cleaning web and a fusing subsystem for a printing system may include a material impregnated with the fuser fluid composition.

Disclosed herein is a release fluid, a fuser member and an image forming apparatus. The release fluid is a blend an amino functional silicone fluid and a non-functional silicone fluid. The amount of the amino functional silicone fluid is from about 10 weight percent to about 90 weight percent of the release fluid. The amount of the non-functional silicone fluid is from about 10 weight percent to about 90 weight percent of the release fluid. The amount of silanol (Si&#x2014;OH) is less than 200 ppm in the release fluid.

Devices and methods for an image shift template. Information defining a document and a first print job is received into a printer. The first print job comprises instructions for printing the document and document finishing instructions. The finishing instructions are analyzed and areas of the pages of the document that will be unusable after a finishing operation according to the instructions are identified. Selection is received to print an image shift template on the document. The image shift template comprises x- and y-axes associated with the document and indication of the areas of the pages of the document that will be unusable after the finishing operation. A second print job is created comprising instructions for printing the pages of the document with the image shift template superimposed on the pages. The pages of the document including the image shift template are printed, according to the second print job.

Image shift template

Methods and devices automatically determine a base color gamut of base marking materials and extension color gamuts of extension marking materials. As each print job is received, these methods and devices automatically evaluate the print job to determine the print job color gamut. Then, the methods and devices can automatically determine the closest match between: the print job color gamut; and the base color gamut or one of the extension color gamuts to identify a matching color gamut. Further, these methods and devices automatically output the matching color gamut (and potentially a corresponding interchangeable supply container, if the matching color gamut is one of the extension color gamuts) by, for example, displaying the matching color gamut and the corresponding interchangeable supply container in at least one additional column in a print queue, or displaying the matching color gamut and the corresponding interchangeable supply container in a separate gamut queue.
