called by some carbon or powdered ink. During the process the toner is held
to the paper with a static charge and then "ironed" or cooked on to the
paper with heat and pressure. If the machine jams you will often find a copy
that the print rubs or blows off the paper. This is the right type!
If you use these machines make the copy as dark as possible and still
usable, it will usually give you more toner making for a better transfer.
