New capsuled toner that achieves long-term image quality stability and corresponds to the next-generation energy saving system. As a manufacturing method, it is our unique production system combining a dry process and a wet process to maximize the characteristics of polyester material and form a capsule of thin film on its surface. As a result, we achieved high energy saving performance and long term stability of image quality while securing adequate heat preservability. On this paper, we describe the feature and performance of the new capsule toner installed and marketed in TASKalfa 6052ci and others.
