Abstract
An image (3) is permanently printed on an object (8) by capturing the image (3) printing heat sensitive ink solids by ther-mal mean onto a medium (9) and then transferring the ink solids from the medium (9) to the object (8) by applying sufficient heat to the ink solids to cause the heat sensitive ink to permanently bond to the object (8) in the desired image (3). The heat sensitive transfer ink is printed onto the medium (9) by thermal printing means (10) at a temperature which will release and print the ink, but which is below the temperature which will cause the heat sensitive ink to bond permanently. The image (3) is then transferred from the medium (9) onto the object (8) at a higher temperature which will cause the sensitive ink to permanently bond to the ob-ject (8).
