Abstract
A process for forming an image, the process including the steps of: forming, on a surface of an image receiving layer of an image receiving body A, an adhesive first image including an adhesive composition by using an electrophotographic technique; forming an inorganic pigment second image on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A by transferring a transfer layer corresponding to the adhesive first image, transferring an inorganic pigment second image onto an image receiving body B, arranging the inorganic pigment second image on a surface of a ceramic material; and heating the ceramic material to sinter the inorganic pigment image onto the surface of the ceramic material.

21. A process for forming an image, comprising the steps of:
-
forming, on a surface of an image receiving layer of an image receiving body A including a support having disposed thereon the image receiving layer, an adhesive first image comprising an adhesive composition;
forming, on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, an inorganic pigment second image that includes a transfer material including an inorganic pigment, by at least contacting the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, having the first image formed thereon, with a surface of a transfer layer of a transfer sheet, which transfer layer comprises the transfer material, heating, and transferring the transfer layer corresponding to the adhesive first image onto the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A;
transferring, onto a surface of an image receiving layer of an image receiving body B including a support having disposed thereon the image receiving layer, the inorganic pigment second image, by at least contacting the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A with the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body B, and heating the same;
arranging, either before or after peeling off the support of the image receiving body B, the inorganic pigment second image on a surface of a ceramic material; and
heating the ceramic material, having the inorganic pigment second image at least arranged thereon, to thereby sinter the inorganic pigment image onto the surface of the ceramic material.

22. A process for forming an image, comprising the steps of:
-
forming, on a surface of an image receiving layer of an image receiving body A including a support having disposed thereon the image receiving layer, an adhesive first image comprising an adhesive composition;
forming, on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, an inorganic pigment second image that includes a transfer material including an inorganic pigment, by at least contacting the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, having the first image formed thereon, with a surface of a transfer layer of a transfer sheet, which transfer layer comprises the transfer material, heating, and transferring the transfer layer corresponding to the adhesive first image onto the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A;
transferring, onto a covercoat layer of an image receiving body C including a support having disposed thereon the covercoat layer, the inorganic pigment second image, by at least contacting the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A with the surface of the covercoat layer of the image receiving body C, and heating the same;
arranging, either before or after peeling off the support of the image receiving body C, the inorganic pigment second image and the covercoat layer on a surface of a ceramic material; and
heating the ceramic material, having the inorganic pigment second image and the covercoat layer at least arranged thereon, to thereby sinter the inorganic pigment image onto the surface of the ceramic material.

23. A process for forming an image, comprising the steps of:
-
forming, on a surface of an image receiving layer of an image receiving body A including a support having disposed thereon at least the image receiving layer, an adhesive latent image comprising an adhesive composition, through an electrophotographic technique;
forming, on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, an inorganic pigment image that includes a transfer material, by at least contacting the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, having the adhesive latent image formed thereon, with a surface of a transfer layer of a transfer sheet, which transfer layer comprises the transfer material including an inorganic pigment, heating, and transferring the transfer layer corresponding to the latent image onto the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A;
disposing a covercoat layer on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A to which the inorganic pigment image including the transfer material has been formed;
arranging at least the inorganic pigment image and the covercoat layer on the surface of a ceramic material by peeling off the support from the image receiving body A; and
heating the ceramic material, having the inorganic pigment at least arranged thereon, to thereby sinter the inorganic pigment image onto the surface of the ceramic material. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28, 29)

24. A process for forming an image, comprising the steps of:
-
forming, on a surface of a water soluble image receiving layer of an image receiving body A including a water permeable support having disposed thereon the image receiving layer including a water soluble polymer, an adhesive latent image comprising an adhesive composition, through an electrophotographic technique;
forming, on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, an inorganic pigment image that includes a transfer material, by at least contacting the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A, having the adhesive latent image formed thereon, with a surface of a transfer layer of a transfer sheet, which transfer layer comprises the transfer material including an inorganic pigment, heating, and transferring the transfer layer corresponding to the latent image onto the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A;
disposing a covercoat layer on the surface of the image receiving layer of the image receiving body A to which the inorganic pigment image including the transfer material has been formed;
arranging the covercoat layer to which the inorganic pigment layer has been formed on the surface of a ceramic material by peeling off the support from the image receiving body A through dissolving the water soluble image receiving layer using water supplied from the side of the support to which the covercoat layer has been formed; and
heating the ceramic material, having the inorganic pigment at least arranged thereon, to thereby sinter the inorganic pigment image onto the surface of the ceramic material. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
