| 20090052947 | RADIATION CURABLE COMPOSITION - A composition includes at least one radiation curable (alkyl)acrylate-polyester oligomer, at least one photoinitiator, and at least one surfactant, wherein the composition has a viscosity of from about 50 cP to about 3000 cP at about 25° C., and a surface tension of from about 15 to about 40 dynes/cm at about 25° C. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090104373 | METHODS FOR APPLYING FLUORESCENT ULTRAVIOLET CURABLE VARNISHES - Disclosed is methods for applying a radiation curable fluorescent varnish to a document and authenticating the document via the radiation curable fluorescent varnish. The ultraviolet radiation curable fluorescent varnish comprising at least one curable monomer or oligomer, at least one photoinitiator, and at least one fluorescent material, wherein upon exposure to activating radiation, the fluorescent material fluoresces to cause a visible change in the appearance of the ultraviolet radiation curable fluorescent varnish. The methods include determining a location of printed portions of an image on a substrate and digitally printing the ultraviolet radiation curable fluorescent varnish onto the substrate in image registration only upon one or more portions of the determined printed portions on the substrate. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090117340 | Substrate, system and method for magnetic ink character recognition encoding - A document comprising a substrate with a surface having cellulose hydroxy groups, an adhesion promoter present on at least a first portion of the substrate surface, and a magnetic ink image formed over the first portion of the substrate surface. The adhesion promoter comprises a silane component including at least one amino functional group and at least one of a second type of functional group that is configured to bond with cellulose hydroxyl groups in the substrate. The magnetic ink image has a magnetic signal strength of at least 80%. A corresponding printing system and a method of printing also are disclosed. | 05-07-2009 |

A corresponding method is also described. The method and system are useful for preparing MICR encoded documents such as checks. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090130302 | System and method for pre-treating magnetic ink character recognition readable documents - Disclosed herein is a printing system is described having a first printer including a fuser employing fuser oil, and a coater disposed upstream or downstream from the first printer and being configured to deposit a wax coating on a portion of the substrate. A corresponding method and a substrate also are described. The system, method and substrate are useful for preparing MICR encoded documents such as checks. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090130396 | Method and system for use in preparing magnetic ink character recognition readable documents - Disclosed herein is a substrate comprising a first surface having fuser oil thereon, a portion of the first surface including a coating comprising a tracer material and a fuser oil-mitigating wax, the quantity of tracer material being indicative of the quantity of coating on the substrate. A printing system comprising a printer, a coater configured to deposit a coating comprising a wax and a tracer material on a portion of a substrate to mitigate fuser oil, a tracer exciter configured to excite the tracer material, and a tracer detector configured to detect the electromagnetic radiation emitted from the tracer material is also disclosed, along with a corresponding method. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090162555 | Coating, system and method for conditioning prints - Disclosed herein is a xerographic print comprising a substrate having a printed image thereon comprising a low melt temperature toner, and a polyolefin wax coating formed over the printed image having a dry thickness in the range of about 0.5 to about 5 microns. The wax coating substantially prevents toner offset at temperatures up to at least | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090200792 | DOCUMENT WITH INVISIBLE ENCODED INFORMATION AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - A document includes a paper substrate having an average surface roughness of at least about 0.5 microns, wherein the paper substrate includes encoded information printed thereon, and wherein the encoded information is printed with an ink comprised of light absorbing material that absorbs light only at wavelengths below 350 nm and an optional clear binder in a solvent. The encoded information is substantially not detectable to a naked human eye through differential gloss or exposure to light having wavelengths of 365 nm or more, and is only revealed upon exposing the document to light having a wavelength at which the light absorbing material absorbs light, which is less than 350 nm. | 08-13-2009 |
| 20090201321 | INLINE PRINTING OF INVISIBLE INFORMATION WITH AN INK JET IN A DIGITAL PRESS SYSTEM - A system integrating a digital press with an ink jet device to form a security document, which includes a xerographic portion and an invisible ink portion, produces documents in a continuous inline process. | 08-13-2009 |
