Abstract
An image transfer material on which an image is printed with ink and then onto which a toner image is transferred by an image forming apparatus, wherein a toner image is transferred onto the transfer material which is fed in a machine direction of a base paper thereof; wherein a water elongation MD of the base paper in the machine direction and a water elongation CD thereof in a direction perpendicular to the machine direction satisfy: CD/MD≧10.
Claims21
An image transfer material on which an image is printed with ink and then onto which a toner image is transferred by an image forming apparatus,
- wherein a toner image is transferred onto the transfer material which is fed in a machine direction of a base paper thereof;
- wherein a water elongation MD of the base paper in the machine direction and a water elongation CD thereof in a direction perpendicular to the machine direction satisfy:
- CD/MD≧10.
An image forming method comprising:
- a step of printing an image on a transfer material with ink;
- a step of transferring a toner image onto said transfer material after said printing step;
- wherein a toner image is transferred onto the transfer material which is fed in a machine direction of a base paper thereof;
- wherein a water elongation MD of the base paper in the machine direction and a water elongation CD thereof in a direction perpendicular to the machine direction satisfy:
- CD/MD≧10.
An image forming apparatus comprising:
- image forming means for forming a toner image onf an image bearing member;
- transferring means for transferring a toner image from said image bearing member onto a transfer material while the transfer is being fed in a direction which is the same as a machine direction of a base paper of the transfer material, the transfer material having been subjected printing with ink;
- wherein a water elongation MD of the base paper in the machine direction and a water elongation CD thereof in a direction perpendicular to the machine direction satisfy:
- CD/MD≧10.
