Abstract
An image is formed by providing a coating of a crosslinkable polymeric substance on a first substrate, and applying a pattern or image of crosslinker to the coated substrate by ink jet printing to crosslink the polymeric substance. Uncrosslinked polymer is removed by washing the coated substrate, and the crosslinked polymer is then transferred imagewise to a second substrate.
