Method of making a projection viewable transparency comprising an electrostatographic toner image

A fusing method for making a transparency capable of projecting an electrostatographic colored toner image that exhibits excellent color clarity, which method comprises:

• a. providing an element having a transparent support comprising a polymer layer bearing an image in colored toner particles that exhibit a loss tangent (tan .delta.) of at least 1.6 upon fusing the image with heat and pressure, the polymer forming such layer also having a loss tangent (tan .delta.) of at least 1.6;
• b. passing the element successively through a fusing zone, a cooling zone and a release zone;
• c. within the fusing zone, bringing the image and polymer layer into pressure contact with a textured surface of a fusing member at a temperature that fuses the image to the support and causes the polymer layer to flow, the textured surface being capable of providing a low-luster fused toner image;
• d. maintaining contact between the fused image and the fusing member within the cooling zone while reducing the temperature of the fusing member;
• and
• e. separating the fused image from the fusing member within the release zone at a temperature where the image and the polymer layer do not offset.
