Claim 1
Independent Claim
125 words
IN AN ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PROCESS OF THE CHARACTER DESCRIBED IN WHICH AN ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE IMAGE IS PRODUCED ON AN ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC SURFACE, THE DEVELOPING STEPS WHICH COMPRISE TREATING SAID SURFACE WITH AN ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE IMAGE THEREON WITH A LIQUID DEVELOPER OF TWO SUBSTANTIALLY IMMISCIBLE PHASES AT LEAST THE CONTINUOUS PHASE COMPRISING A LIQUID OF HIGH ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY, THE DISPERSED PHASE FORMING A DEVELOPER AGENT AND COMPRISING A RESIN DISSOLVED IN A SOLVENT AND CARRYING AN ELECTROSTATIC CHARGE, SAID SOLVENT BEING IMMISCIBLE WITH SAID CONTINUOUS PHASE, MAINTAINING SAID SURFACE IN CONTACT WITH SAID LIQUID DEVELOPER FOR DEVELOPMENT OF SAID CHARGE IMAGE, AND EFFECTING SUBSTANTIALLY PERMANENT ADHESION OF THE DEVELOPED IMAGE ON SAID SURFACE BY REMOVING SAID LIQUID OF HIGH ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY AND THE SOLVENT FOR THE DISSOLVED RESIN.
