1. A UV-curable liquid toner composition for use in liquid electrostatic printing comprising:
- a dispersion of toner particles suspended in a hydrocarbon-based liquid carrier; and
at least one UV-curable component;
wherein;
a concentration of the toner particles is about 2 percent by weight of a total weight of the composition;
a concentration of the at least one UV-curable component ranges from about 0.5 to about 5 percent by weight of the total weight of the composition; and
a concentration of the hydrocarbon-based liquid carrier ranges from 90 to 97.5 percent by weight of the total weight of the composition.
