Liquid Inks Contain:
1) Charged toner particles: Field dependent
2) Co-Ions: charged micelle with same polarityof toner
3) Counter-Ions: charged micelle with oppositepolarity of toner
4) Carrier Liquid

SUMMARY:
• A charge characterization process based on the charge transport model is developed.
• The process determines charge density and mobility distribution of simple dispersions.
• For liquid inks, the apparent charge densities of the toner particles do not stay constant.
• To better characterize liquid inks, a quantitative understanding and modeling of charge generation is needed.
