Appeal No. 98-0978
Application 08/505,650
This is an appeal from the examiner's refusal to
allow claims 1, 5, 9 through 11, 14, 16, 18, 20, and 22
through 24 as amended after final rejection. Claims 12, 19
and 26 stand
allowed. Claims 3, 4, 6, 7, 13, 15, 21 and 25 stand withdrawn
from consideration as directed to a non-elected invention.
Claims 2, 8 and 17 have been cancelled. These are all the
claims in the application.
The claimed invention is directed to an apparatus
and process of printing using an endless web or belt of low
thermal inertia. The printing image is formed by fixing a
hardenable substance on the web or belt. The hardenable
substance, when fixed on the web, forms zones with an affinity
for the colorant and zones without an affinity for the
colorant. Thereafter, the image is transferred to the media
to be printed and the image formed on the web is removed so
that the web is available for another image to be placed
thereon.
