Patent ID: 7041424

Claim:
A process of printing an image using an electrographic printer and an energy reactive toner, comprising the steps of: a. preparing a first toner, wherein said first toner comprises a colorant; b. preparing a second toner, wherein said second toner comprises at least one compound comprising at least one functional group which is capable of reacting with active hydrogen, wherein said second toner has no colorant; c. supplying an electrographic printer with said first toner and said second toner; d. printing a portion of said first toner by means of said electrographic printer onto a first substrate so that said first toner as printed provides an image layer on said first substrate; e. printing a portion of said second toner by means of said electrographic printer onto a first substrate so that said second toner as printed covers said image layer on said first substrate; and f. subsequently applying energy to said image layer, and reacting active hydrogen with said at least one compound comprising at least one functional group which is capable of reacting with active hydrogen, and bonding said image layer to a final substrate.
