Abstract
The efficient contact transfer of liquid toner images is obtained by using an absorbent coating material over an image bearing member. The absorbent coating material absorbs carrier fluid from a developed image. By absorbing carrier fluid from the developed image the internal cohesiveness of the image increases and the adhesion of the image to the next substrate increases.
