Estimating the term…
The invention provides a recording sheet including an additive, referred to herein as a compatibilizer, to improve the quality of images formed by toner powder development of electrostatic charge patterns. Recording sheets, carrying images produced by toner powder transfer and fusion on a receptor surface, according to the present invention, exhibit improved light transmission and reduced light scattering. Specifically, a transparent sheet is provided having a toner-receptive coating containing about 4 wt. % to about 25 wt % of a compatibilizer on at least one surface, wherein the coating has a low density yellow Q factor value at least 2 less than an identical coating without the compatibilizer.
A transparent sheet having two major surfaces, having coated on at least one surface, a coating receptive to a toner image, said coating when imaged having a Q factor defining image transparency, said coating comprising:
A coating receptive to a toner image, said coating when imaged having a Q factor value defining image transparency, said coating comprising:
