Abstract
A process is described for dyeing a disperse dyeable material such as a textile or film, comprising the steps of: forming a latent magnetic image in a magnetic imaging member comprising a ferromagnetic material on an electrically conductive support; developing the magnetic image by applying thereto a ferromagnetic toner comprising a ferromagnetic component, a dye compnent containing a dye which is substantially sublimable at from 160.degree. to 215.degree. C., and a resin, which substantially encapsulates the ferromagnetic component and the dye component; transferring the developed image to a paper sheet, applying a thermally stable sublimable-dye-permeable polymeric material to the side of the paper sheet bearing the toner image material into contact with a textile material to be dyed; and heating the textile material and paper sheet to thereby transfer the dye image from the paper sheet through the polymeric material to form a dye image in the textile material.
