Abstract
Abstract A paper useful in ion deposition printing. The paper comprises a base sheet or web to which there is applied a coating of a material selected from a group that is at least partially soluble with the binders of the toner employed in the printing process under the conditions of pressure and temperature at which such toner is transferred to the paper in the course of such printing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
142 words
A sheet or web useful in ion deposition printing employing a polymeric-based toner and comprising a sheet or web substrate, a coating on at least one surface of said substrate, said coating comprising a polymeric latex having a Tg of about -30° C. to about +30° C. and a solubility parameter in the range of about 8 to about 12 with respect to the binder of the toner employed int he ion deposition printing wherein when said toner disposed on said material is subjected to transfixation in an unheated nip, at least greater then 80% of said toner is retained on said material after said toner-bearing material has been subjected to a tape test, and wherein said polymeric latex is present on said substrate in an amount of between about 1.0 and about 5 lbs. per 3,000 ft 2 of substrate surface.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
142 words
A sheet or web useful in ion deposition printing employing a polymeric-based toner and comprising a sheet or web substrate, a coating on at least one surface of said substrate, said coating comprising a polymeric latex having a Tg of about -30° C. to about +30° C. and a solubility parameter in the range of about 8 to about 12 with respect to the binder of the toner employed int he ion deposition printing wherein when said toner disposed on said material is subjected to transfixation in an unheated nip, at least greater then 80% of said toner is retained on said material after said toner-bearing material has been subjected to a tape test, and wherein said polymeric latex is present on said substrate in an amount of between about 1.0 and about 5 lbs. per 3,000 ft 2 of substrate surface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
The sheet or web of claim 1 wherein said toner comprises a polyethylene binder and said polymeric latex coating is an acrylic polymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
The sheet or web of claim 2 wherein said polymeric latex coating is selected from the group consisting of polymethylacrylate, polyethylacrylate, and polybutylacrylate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
23 words
The sheet or web of claim 1 wherein said toner comprises a polyethylene/vinyl acetate binder and said polymeric latex coating is ethylene/vinyl copolymers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
The sheet or web of claim 1 wherein the toner applied to said paper in the course of ion deposition printing thereon is not materially dislodged when said printed paper is creased.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
18 words
The sheet or web of claim 1 wherein said coating is applied to both surfaces of said paper.
