Abstract:
1. An electrostatographic machine comprising: a housing defining a chamber for storing a supply of toner therein; an advancing member for advancing the toner on a surface thereof from the chamber of said housing in a first direction toward a latent image; a transfer station for transferring toner to a substrate comprising a flexible substrate, the transfer station including a transfer assist member for providing substantially uniform contact between said print substrate and said image-retentive member; a developer unit comprising toner for developing said latent image, wherein said toner is emulsion aggregation toner having an average particle size of from about 2.5 to about 4.2 microns, and wherein said emulsion aggregation toner comprises at least one amorphous polyester resin in combination with at least one crystalline polyester resin and at least one photoinitiator; and a fuser member for fusing said toner to said flexible substrate via light at a wavelength of from about 200 nm to about 4000 nm, wherein said developed image on said flexible substrate has a toner pile height of from about 1 to about 6 microns.
