7. PxP (polymerized) toner
"PxP toner" is a fine-particle, polyester resin
based toner, manufactured using a Ricoh-original
polymerization method instead of the
conventional pulverization method.
This allows the toner to fuse at a lower
temperature, which reduces the impact on the
environment and contributes to achieving even
higher image quality than before.
PxP toner also has other benefits, including a
reduction in the amount of toner needed to
develop the image, as well as an approximate
35% reduction in CO
2
emissions during the toner
manufacturing process.
