Description
【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、静電印刷用シートに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
最近、電子写真法を用いたプラスチックフィルム,紙等に対する画像形成方法が注目されている。この方法は衆知のごとく製版工程が不要であるため、少量多品種の印刷物を製造するには最適な方法である。特に、液体トナ−を使用した電子写真現像法は粉体トナ−を使用した場合と比較して出力画像が高精細で品質が良く、画像品質の面ではグラビア印刷方式、オフセット印刷方式に匹敵するレベルまで達している。
【0003】
しかしながら、液体トナ−を使用した場合、液体トナーとの密着性の問題などプリント適性の点から使用できる用紙がコート紙に限定されるため、コストアップになる問題があるとともに、鉛筆、水性ペン、ボールペンなどで良好に筆記できない、筆記後に消しゴムで良好に消せないなどの問題があった。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
