The aim of this general remarks is to introduce the results concerning the thermo physical, charging, developing and fusing characteristics of micro-encapsulated (MC) model toners in order to apply to the toner of electrophotographic system at the condition of a low temperature. In order to clarify the fusing mechanism of MC toner, rheological analysis of the toner was chosen. It was suggested that MC toner had a different fusing mechanism compared with non-MC toner. Some kinds of MC model toners showed a good result on adhesion test as well as cohesion test. Also, it was possible to get the good charging and development characteristic of MC toner for printing test with laser printer.
