給される。Data information sent from the data signal generating section 1 to the laser emitting section 2 passes through the lens 3 and is formed on the photoreceptor 4 as an electrostatic latent image due to potential changes. A charge is uniformly applied to the photoreceptor 4 in advance by a main charger 5, and the amount thereof is always controlled to be constant by a potential sensor 6. The developing device 7 contains a developer 20 made of a rubber material (for example, silicone rubber, etc.) and a resin material (for example, styrene acrylic, etc.), which is an important part of the present invention. The electrolatent image is made into a visible image. The developer 20 to be used is supplied from the developer supply section 8 according to the amount used.
感光体４上の可視像はトラクタ一部１０にて転写帯電器
９の働きによって用紙１９上に転写される。The visible image on the photoreceptor 4 is transferred onto a sheet 19 by the action of a transfer charger 9 in a tractor section 10.

像剤２０中に黒等の染料が加えられるのが通常である。The paper 19 passes through the loop plate 13 and passes through the flash fixing device 14, where the resin component in the developer 20 absorbs flash light and is heated, melts, wraps around the rubber material, and is fixed onto the paper 19 in a non-contact manner. The data 21 is formed into a three-dimensional shape. In order to improve the absorption of flash light at this time, a dye such as black is usually added to the developer 20.
現像剤２０への黒染料等の追加は出力データの複写を可
能にすることができ、データの利用拡大にも有効な手段
である。Addition of black dye or the like to the developer 20 makes it possible to copy output data, and is an effective means for expanding the use of data.
データが定着された用紙１９はフィードロール１６にて
用紙ストック部１８に送られストックされる。The paper 19 on which the data has been fixed is sent to a paper stock section 18 by a feed roll 16 and is stocked therein.
用紙供給部１７にセットされた用紙はトラクタ一部１０
及びフィードロール１６によって搬送されている。The paper set in the paper supply section 17 is transported to the tractor part 10.
and is conveyed by feed rolls 16.
