Abstract:
1. A method of printing using an ink jet printer consisting of: a. preparing an ink jet ink comprising: b. supplying an ink jet printer with said ink jet ink; c. printing said ink jet ink using said jet printer and forming an image on a printable substrate, wherein said energy activated printing additive solidifies upon evaporation of said liquid carrier; d. transferring said image to a final substrate by the application of heat to said image at a temperature between about 175° C. and about 212° C., whereupon said energy activated printing additive liquefies by the application of said heat to said image, and said reactive dye is solubilized in said energy activated printing additive, and said energy activated printing additive, in a liquid form, facilitates transfer of said image from said printable substrate to said final substrate, and said reactive dye reacts with said final substrate and thereby bonds to said final substrate to form said image on said final substrate.
