A method of preparing toner, is provided by preparing a stabilizer dispersion solution using distilled water and a dispersing agent; forming droplets by discharging the toner composition including at least one polymerizable monomer, a colorant, wax, and an initiator into the stabilizer dispersion solution through a syringe needle; forming core particles by warming the droplets dispersed in the stabilizer dispersion solution; and forming shells by adding a polymerizable monomer, a cross-linking agent, and an initiator to the core particles. The diameter of particles of the toner can be efficiently adjusted by changing the manufacturing process of the polymerization toner. The distribution of the toner particle diameter is improved and thus no additional sorting process is required. Also, the transferring performance of the toner can be improved, and various colors can be realized by a simple process.
