the amount of residual oil on the printed image in other words a greater amount of low carbon alcohol solution can be used for a greater amount of residual oil however this quantitative relationship is only general in nature the media 40 on which the printed image is located can be of varying types such as uncoated paper coated paper or plastic film for example a polyester film made of polyethylene terephthalate pet such as mylar u00ae sold by dupont a biaxially oriented polypropylene bopp film sold by innovia or aluminum foil the specific media 40 used can vary inasmuch as it does not contact the low carbon alcohol solution according to some embodiments thus there can be little if any contact between the low carbon alcohol solution and the media 40 which tends to minimize concern about potential adverse effects due to such contact the following example illustrates one exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure this example is intended to be illustrative only to show one of several methods of removing oil from a printed media and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure also parts and percentages are by volume unless otherwise indicated solid ink prints were generated using a drum maintenance unit dmu that contains spreader oil in lieu of the usual transfix oil used in a typical office printer mode after printing the solid fills a kimwipe u00ae by kimberly clark was moistened with isopropanol alcohol ipa and the print was rubbed in a gentle sweeping motion next the treated print was coated with a mathis labcoater using a 2 u00bd meyer rod wire wound rod and heated to 80 u00b0.
