Abstract
An indirect printing process for printing a gel ink. The process comprises providing a gel ink composition in an inkjet printing apparatus. Droplets of gel ink are ejected in an imagewise pattern onto an intermediate transfer member wherein each ink droplet forms a substantially circular image on the transfer member. The ink droplets are gelled and dried or solidified to form a substantially dry ink pattern on the intermediate transfer member. The substantially dry ink pattern is transferred from the intermediate transfer member to a final substrate.
