Image formation with image-receiving holder and image formation medium

A device comprising:

• a transfer member comprising at least one of a belt and a drum;
• a first portion along a travel path of the transfer member to receive an electrically charged, non-aqueous image-receiving holder onto the transfer member;
• a series of stations arranged along the travel path, downstream from the first portion, in which each station is to provide one color ink of a plurality of different color inks onto the transfer member, and wherein each station comprises:
• a second portion along the travel path to receive droplets of ink particles within a dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid onto the electrically charged, non-aqueous image-receiving holder on the transfer member to form at least a portion of an image thereon;
• a charge source downstream along the travel path from the second portion, to emit airborne charges to charge the color ink particles to move, via attraction relative to the electrically charged, non-aqueous image-receiving holder, through the dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid to become electrostatically fixed relative to the electrically charged, non-aqueous image-receiving holder;
• a liquid removal unit positioned relative to the transfer member to remove at least a first portion of the dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid from a surface of the electrically charged, non-aqueous image-receiving holder, the liquid removal unit comprising at least one of a mechanical element and a drying element and wherein the removed first portion comprises at least 80 percent of the dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid received onto the electrically charged, semi-liquid image-receiving holder;
• and
• a transfer station to transfer the ink particles of the image and the electrically charged, non-aqueous image-receiving holder together from the transfer member to an image formation medium, wherein the transfer station comprises a roller.

A method comprising:

• applying an electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium onto a transfer member, which comprises a roller;
• ejecting droplets of color ink particles within a first dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid in at least one pattern onto the electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium on the transfer member to form an image;
• directing airborne charges to charge the at least one pattern of color ink particles to induce movement of the charged color ink particles, via attraction relative to the electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium, through the first dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid to become electrostatically fixed in the at least one pattern of the image relative to the electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium;
• removing liquid, including at least the first dielectric, non-aqueous carrier fluid, from a surface of the electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium;
• and
• electrostatically transferring the at least one pattern of color ink particles of the image and the electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium together from the transfer member to a second image formation medium with the electrically charged, semi-liquid non-aqueous first image formation medium forming an outermost layer of an image formation medium assembly.
