Liquid electrophotographic development with excess ions
Abstract
A proposed theory of liquid electrophotographic development explicitly accounts for the presence of excess ions. The theory shows that the maximum development possible is decreased from the neutralization limit by the ratio of the toner conductivity to the total conductivity. Three independent techniques are proposed to determine this ratio. It is found to be about 0.2 for a commercially available liquid developer.
