Abstract

An image-forming element including a cylinder having at its outer periphery a dielectric surface layer and, beneath the surface layer, a number of electrodes insulated from one another, the electrodes being connected to elements within the cylinder for selectively controlling the electrodes in accordance with an image pattern to be formed, this connection being established by securing in at least one opening in the wall of the cylinder control device which, on the one hand, are connected to electronic control components within the cylinder and, on the other hand, are connected to the electrodes on the periphery of the cylinder. An image-forming element thus prepared can be used in a printing device for reproducing information.
