          Application No. 08/088,012                                                  


                                      Appendix                                        
               1.   An image forming method in an electrostatographic                 
          apparatus having a fuser, comprising the steps of:                          
               forming a composite toner image on a receiver, said                    
          composite toner image having an underlay image comprising                   
          underlay toner and an overlay image comprising overlay toner,               
          said overlay image being imagewise on top of said underlay                  
          image, said underlay toner being adhesive to said fuser at a                
          release temperature, said overlay toner being non-adhesive to               
          said fuser at said release temperature;                                     
               fixing said composite toner image on said receiver by                  
          contacting said composite toner image on said receiver with                 
          said fuser; and                                                             
               releasing said composite toner image on said receiver                  
          from said fuser at said release temperature whereby the                     
          release temperature of the fuser is higher than if said                     
          overlay toner were not on top of said underlay toner.                       


















                                          8
