Disclosed is a process for controlling the electrical characteristics of colored toner particles. The process comprises preparing a first core material comprising first pigment particles, core monomers, a free radical initiator, and optional polymer components; preparing a second core material which comprises second pigment particles, core monomers, a free radical initiator, and optional polymer components, said second pigment particles being of a different color from that of the first pigment particles; encapsulating separately the first core material and the second core material within polymeric shells by means of interfacial polymerization reactions between at least two shell monomers, of which at least one is soluble in aqueous media and at least one of which is soluble in organic media, wherein the polymeric shell encapsulating the first core material is of substantially the same composition as the polymeric shell encapsulating the second core material; and subsequently polymerizing the first and second core monomers via free radical polymerization, thereby producing two encapsulated heat fusible toner compositions of different colors with similar triboelectric charging characteristics.
