ABSTRACT:
An imaging apparatus including an image bearing surface having formed thereon a liquid image comprising carrier liquid and toner particles, an intermediate transfer member positioned in operative association with the image bearing surface, a first transfer station at which the liquid image is transferred from the image bearing surface onto the intermediate transfer member, and a second transfer station at which the liquid image is transferred from the intermediate transfer member onto a substrate including a source of heat which heats the intermediate transfer member and the liquid image so as to cause the toner to adhere to the substrate and whereat the intermediate transfer member and the liquid image are cooled sufficiently such that the adhesion of the toner to the intermediate transfer member is less than the cohesion of the toner.
