A Glimpse Into The World of Canon Toner

Canon is one of the leading printing supply companies in the world known for innovation and dedication to the products being produced, including being the first company to launch a cartridge recycling program in 1990. Canon toner comes in a range of high quality products that go above and beyond the usual plastic particles you find sold by most OEM companies and in compatible toner cartridges.

Those who have little or no experience with printing toner may be surprised to learn that toner is actually quite distinct from liquid ink–in fact, it is not even ink at all. Printing toner is actually a combination of small carbon particles that are held onto a piece of paper by static electricity, then melted and pressed onto the page by a heating and pressure roller. Using toner allows companies to experiment with their inks in a wide variety of ways; and this is a process that Canon toner has taken to a whole new level.

Vivid Toner (V Toner) is a standard toner intended for use with Canon color digital presses. A clear toner has also been developed to supplement the V Toner to create watermarks or to enhance glossy images. Spherical and Synergy Toner (S Toner) are chemically produced toner particles of uniform size and shape, which helps to make clean lines and sharp images. These particles actually have a tiny ball of wax in the center to create a better gloss. The Pure Quality (pQ) Canon toner was designed with office environments in mind, and also includes a wax core for oil-less fusing. In fact, this toner was entirely designed for better fusing, and the wax core and resin formula of this toner actually saves on the energy costs of the printer. High Reliability toner is a nifty design for high speed photocopiers that uses binder resin technology to ensure that the last page printed by the cartridge is just as high quality as the first, and Quick Fixing toner is similar but designed to use less energy and pressure in the printing, thus saving some extra money.
