Inkjet ink disclosed herein, usable for at least a transfer sheet suitable for an inorganic substrate, contains an inorganic solid content and a photocurable monomer component. The monomer component contains at least a monofunctional acrylate-based monomer, a monofunctional N-vinyl compound monomer, and a polyfunctional vinylether-based monomer. With respect to 100% by mass as the total weight of the monomer component, the monofunctional acrylate-based monomer is contained at a weight ratio of 40% by mass to 96% by mass, the monofunctional N-vinyl compound monomer is contained at a weight ratio of 2% by mass to 20% by mass, and the polyfunctional vinylether-based monomer is contained at a weight ratio of 2% by mass to 40% by mass.

A fuser includes a fuser roll and a pressure roll that forms a nip between the rolls through which a sheet is conveyed to permanently fuse an image onto the sheet. The fuser roll includes a heater element having a single resistive trace, a common trace tapped to a first side of the resistive trace continuous across the resistive trace, and first and second conductive traces tapped to ends of the resistive trace at a second side of the resistive trace opposite the first side. The first and second conductive traces are physically separated and conductively segmented by a conductive gap between the conductive traces. The resistive trace includes a separation gap extending through the resistive trace continuously from the second side of the resistive trace at the conductive gap towards the first side of the resistive trace to prevent current flow between the segmented conductive traces.

The present invention relates to a mat production apparatus for producing a multifunctional mat. The mat production apparatus includes: a transfer printing device including a guide unit configured to introduce a multifunctional mat and transfer paper, a first heating panel configured to include an aluminum heater panel so that transfer printing can be performed, a first manifold configured to distribute heat, a transfer means disposed below the first manifold and configured to perform transfer printing on the multifunctional mat through thermal bonding without pressure, and a first elevation means configured to selectively elevate and lower the transfer means; and a processing device including a mat seating part configured such that the transfer-printed multifunctional mat is seated thereon and a processing panel disposed above the mat seating part and configured to perform thermal bonding so that folding grooves and edges can be formed on the multifunctional mat.
