Pulverised Toner
Pulverised (Conventional) Toner: Pulverised toner is the traditional type of toner that has been used in laser printers and copiers for many years. It is made through a mechanical process that involves grinding and crushing larger toner particles into fine powder. The key features of pulverised toner are:
Particle Shape: The pulverised toner particles have irregular shapes, with varying sizes and sharp edges.
Production Process: The manufacturing of pulverized toner involves mechanical grinding of polymer material, colourants, and other additives.
Fusing Process: During the fusing process in a laser printer or copier, the irregular shape and sharp edges of pulverised toner particles require higher temperatures and pressures to fuse properly with the paper, resulting in slightly higher energy consumption.
