Abstract

See full text

A method for reducing variations in gloss in a solid ink jet image, is disclosed. The method includes: jetting marking solid ink jet droplets onto a receiver to form an image; heating the receiver to a temperature so that the marking solid ink melts; spreading the marking solid ink on the receiver; and controlling the temperature of the marking solid ink on the receiver to provide a desired specularly reflective surface of the solid ink so that variations in gloss are reduced.
