TONER HAVING EXCELLENT IMAGE UNIFORMITY

摘要

There is provided a toner having narrow charge distribution, high chargeability and low imamge contamination, as well as excellent physical properties such as long-term stability, transfer property and image uniformity, by improving shapes of toner core particles and adding a suitable external additive to surfaces of the toner core particles. The toner includes spheroidized toner core particles; and an external additive coated onto surfaces of the toner core particles, wherein the external additive comprises organic powder, silica and spherical titanium dioxide powder. The toner may be useful to obtain a highly uniform and high-quality image even when the toner of the present invention is used for an extended time since the toner has high chargeability, excellent image uniformity in which charge uniformity and narrow charge distribution are maintained for a long time, low image contamination, as wll as excellent physical properties such as transfer property and long-term stability.
