Summary:A liquid electrophotographic (LEP) ink composition is described. The composition comprises: a pigment particle having an acidic surface modification; a basic charge director selected from:(i) a polymeric amine dispersant having a Total Base Number of at least 100 mg KOH/gram material, and (ii) a sulfosuccinate salt of the general formula MAn, wherein M is a metal, n is the valence of M, and A is an ion of the general formula (I): [R1-O-C(O)CH2CH(SO3)C(O)-O-R2]− (I); and a liquid carrier. The ink composition does not include a thermoplastic resin. Also described are a method of producing the ink composition, and a method of printing using the ink composition.
