Abstract
An intermediate transfer member achieves substantially 100% toner transfer by containing a fluorocarbon elastomer containing less than 60 mole % vulnerable sites in the fluorocarbon chain. A high resolution image can be produced in an image developing system containing such a fluorocarbon elastomer. The fluorocarbon elastomer reduces the charge exchange between toner particles and the intermediate transfer member, and also reduces charge exchange between charge directors in liquid developers and the intermediate transfer member.
