ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method are provided for forming a laser induced thermal dye transfer. The apparatus includes a dye receiving element having a ridge formed along a periphery thereof for receiving a dye donor element thereon with the only physical contact between the elements occurring along the ridge. Separation between the donor and receiver elements is maintained by the ridge by mounting the donor and receiver against mounting plates that hold the elements flat. A vacuum is applied to the holding plates to attract the elements towards their respective holders.
