ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS, ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC METHOD, AND PROCESS FOR PREPARING A TONER IMAGE BEARING SHEET brbrbr Patents-stay tuned to the technology ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC APPARATUS,

摘要

The present invention can provide an electrophotographic apparatus and an electrophotographic method in which the effect of dot gain is small, a slippery gradation representation is realized, a gradation reproduction capability is high, and moir is less likely to occur. One state of the present invention forms a latent image having no high moire and a high relative resolution by using a frequency modulation screening method when binarizing continuous imaged images. The latent image formed in this way is developed using a liquid developer to form a toner layer having a small thickness, and a toner image having a small mechanical and optical dot gain is formed.
