摘要:
A method for preparing an electrophotographic printing-use developer by mixing components of toner material, fusing and kneading the toner material, and then crushing and classifying the toner material, includes the step of arranging carbon black which is one of the components of the toner material to contain water before the mixing step. This arrangement permits even dispersion of water in the mixture of the components, prevents the flowability of the mixture from being lowered, and achieves stable kneading. Therefore, improved dispersion of the components is achieved. Since water adsorption is stable, water-treated carbon showing reduced water segregation is obtained. Consequently, high quality less foggy images with high resolution are obtained.
摘要:
An electrophotographic toner is made up of toner particles composed of irregularly-shaped core particles made chiefly of binder resin, and surface-modifying fine particles which are first dispersed over and attached to the surface of the core particles, and then affixed or formed into a film thereon. The BET specific surface area, based on N 2 adsorption, of the toner particles is less than 0.64 times the BET specific surface area of the core particles and surface-modifying fine particles combined together. Further, this value is 1.07 times the BET specific surface area of hypothetical toner particles which are perfect spheres. Consequently, the toner is not prone to problems such as filming, toner scattering, and fogging which are caused by peeling, separation, etc. of the surface-modifying fine particles, nor to poor cleaning due to spherical toner particles. Further, since the toner is manufactured with a quantitative grasp of the state of modification of the surface of the core particles by the surface-modifying fine particles, it is a toner in a stable state.

摘要:
An image forming device includes an optical system for forming an electrostatic latent image on a photosensitive body by exposure of an original in light, a development system for developing the electrostatic latent image, and a control system for controlling the optical system and the development system. The control system detects the concentration of a toner in a developing agent tank, calculating a difference between the detected toner concentration and a predetermined toner concentration, replenishing the toner to the developing agent tank until the detected toner concentration makes a recovery to the predetermined toner concentration, clocking a time period for the recovery and controlling at least one of the amount of the exposure light and the amount of the toner adhering to a photosensitive body based on the clocked time period for the recovery.
