Simtri toner

By including wax in the toner manufacturing, oil-less fixing has been realised. This makes it unnecessary to apply silicon oil to the heater during the fixing process, thus eliminating the "white-line noise" that is caused by dust adhered to the optical system by the vapour from the oil. And, as image glare that is usually caused by oil is eliminated, you get clean images without blur and oily stains. This means you can also use ballpoint pens to write on the prints, or put labels on them. Furthermore, as there is no need to refill oil, the life of the fixing unit is prolonged, which enhances machine reliability and facilitates maintenance.

With Konica Minolta's special polymerisation method, the cohesion and fusion of particles and colour pigments make it possible to contain a large amount of wax evenly, resulting in a polymerised toner that enables oil-less fixing.
