An imaging method comprising providing a migration imaging member comprising a substrate and an electrically insulating softenable layer on the substrate, the softenable layer comprising migration marking material located at least at or near the surface of the softenable layer spaced from the substrate and a charge transport material in the softenable layer, electrostatically charging the member, exposing the member to activating radiation in an imagewise pattern, decreasing the resistance to migration of marking material in the softenable layer sufficiently to allow slight migration in depth of marking material towards the substrate in image configuration, and further decreasing the resistance to migration of marking material in the softenable layer sufficiently to allow nonmigrated marking material to agglomerate. |
