An imaging apparatus, comprising an imaging member with an electrostatic latent image formed thereon, said imaging member containing a surface capable of supporting marking material; an imaging device for generating the electrostatic latent image on said imaging member, wherein the electrostatic latent image includes image areas defined by a first charge voltage and non-image areas defined by a second charge voltage distinguishable from the first charge voltage; a marking material supply apparatus for depositing marking material on the surface of said imaging member to form a marking material layer thereon adjacent the electrostatic latent image on said imaging member; a charging source for selectively delivering charges to the marking material layer in an imagewise manner responsive to the electrostatic latent image on said imaging member to form a secondary latent image in the marking material layer having image and nonimage areas corresponding to the electrostatic latent image on said imaging member; and a separator member for selectively separating portions of the marking material layer in accordance with the secondary latent image in the marking material layer to create a developed image corresponding to the electrostatic latent image formed on said imaging member and wherein said marking material is comprised of a liquid developer comprised of an optional nonpolar liquid, resin, colorant, and a charge acceptance component comprised of a cyclodextrin.
An imaging apparatus, comprising
An imaging process, comprising
An image development apparatus for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on an imaging member comprising
