Abstract

A hybrid printing system adds color accents to documents produced by high speed black on white printers using wax based inks. The color indicia is printed while the moving documents are supported against a curved surface and the documents are heated to an appropriate temperature for use of a wax based ink between black printing and color accent printing.
