Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A member useful in printing including a substrate useful in printing, a first coating deposited on the substrate, the first coating having a first surface tension and forming an edge, a second coating deposited on the substrate adjacent the edge of the first coating, the second coating having a second surface tension. The first surface tension is different than the second surface tension. A method for forming a fuser system assembly, the method including: a) depositing a first coating having a first surface tension to form an edge on a substrate; and, b) depositing a second coating having a second surface tension on the substrate adjacent to the edge, the first surface tension is different than the second surface tension.
