Abstract: In the case where a sheet on which a transparent toner image is to be formed has high glossiness (S101), when the transparent toner image is formed in an area in which a user wishes to partly increase the glossiness, the glossiness (S102) in the area in which the user wishes to increase the glossiness is lowered. For that reason, a print as desired by the user cannot be obtained by fixing the transparent toner image in an area corresponding to the area in which the user wishes to increase the glossiness. 
     In the case where the sheet to be subjected to printing is judged as highly glossy paper (S103), the transparent toner image is placed in an image formable area except for the area in which the user wishes to increase the glossiness (S105).

Abstract: The present application relates to a welding method and an assembly for performing the method. Articles (12,14) to be welded are placed together so that faying surfaces thereof face each other, a joint region (16) is defined by the faying surfaces and juxtaposed surfaces (30) of the articles (12,14), a shim is between and contacts the faying surfaces, and an edge portion (38) of the shim protrudes from the juxtaposed surfaces (30). The articles (12,14) are welded together by projecting onto the joint region (16) a high-powered laser beam (10) that is focused on the juxtaposed surfaces (30) and intentionally unfocused on the edge portion (38) of the shim so that portions of the laser beam (10) are diffracted by the edge portion (38) onto the juxtaposed surfaces (30). The laser beam (10) and its diffracted portions melt the shim and the faying and juxtaposed surfaces (30) of the articles (12,14). Cooling of the articles (12,14) yields a welded assembly having a weld joint (20) entirely through a through-thickness of the welded assembly.
