Abstract
A magnetic wire application apparatus includes: an image forming unit that forms an image on a drum using a solid ink; a magnetic wire application unit that applies a magnetic wire on the image formed on the drum by the image forming unit using the solid ink; and an image transfer unit that transfers the image, which is formed by the image forming unit on the drum by the solid ink and applied with the magnetic wire by the magnetic wire application unit, to a printing paper.
Claims11
A magnetic wire application apparatus, comprising:
- an image forming unit that forms an image on a drum using a solid ink;
- a magnetic wire application unit that applies a magnetic wire on the image formed on the drum by the image forming unit using the solid ink;
- and
- an image transfer unit that transfers the image, which is formed by the image forming unit on the drum by the solid ink and applied with the magnetic wire by the magnetic wire application unit, to a printing paper.
A magnetic wire application apparatus comprising:
- an image forming unit that forms an image on a drum using a solid ink;
- a magnetic wire application unit that applies a magnetic wire on an area of a surface of a printing paper, where the image formed on the drum using the solid ink is to be transferred;
- and
- an image transfer unit that transfers the image of the solid ink onto the area of the printing paper where the magnetic wire has been applied,
- wherein the magnetic wire emits a sharp magnetic pulse upon receiving a predetermined magnetic field.
A method for applying a magnetic wire, comprising:
- attaching the magnetic wire to a surface of a printing paper prior to formation of an image by a solid ink;
- and
- subsequently forming the image on the printing paper by the solid ink so that the attached magnetic wire is covered by the solid ink,
- wherein the magnetic wire emits a sharp magnetic pulse upon receiving a predetermined magnetic field.
A method for applying a magnetic wire, comprising:
- forming an image on a drum by a solid ink;
- applying the magnetic wire onto the image formed on the drum by the solid ink;
- and
- transferring the image, which is formed on the drum by the solid ink and applied with the magnetic wire, to a printing paper.
A printing material including a magnetic wire, comprising:
- a sheet of printing material;
- a magnetic wire applied on a surface of the sheet;
- and
- a layer of a solid ink that covers the magnetic wire and forms a desired image on the sheet,
- wherein the magnetic wire emits a sharp magnetic pulse upon receiving a predetermined magnetic field.
