toner
(1) a highly concentrated pigment and/or dye used to modify the hue or color strength of a printing ink; also refer to tinter.
Toners - used to change the color of the photographic print by chemical baths. Through the system of bleaching and toning, the black metallic silver image is converted to a dye image.
Colored toner became available in the 1950s, although full-color copiers were not commercially available until 3M released the Color-in-Color copier in 1968, which used a dye sublimation process rather than conventional electrostatic technology.
For the toner, use Kodak Rapid Selenium Toner, diluted 1:7. For the paper, use Agfa Brovira (glossy), grade 4 or 5, or BroviraSpeed, grade 4 or 5.
Toning and toners-Changing the visual appearance of a silver image by converting some or all of the silver halides to a different type, resulting in an image tone. This can be accomplished with either prints or negatives.
Selenium toner can be made by combining selenium with sodium sulfide to make sodium selenosulfide. The other way to do it is to combine selenium with sodium sulfite to produce sodium slenosulfate.
The image is first printed on a special transfer paper using colored ceramic toner. Next the paper is soaked in water, and the image applied to the ceramic article.
While it's washing, you can mix the toner solution in a tray. Most toners recommend a mixture of one part toner to nine parts water, but Frost again suggests that you make the solution even weaker.
Ink jet papers need to be specially coated and should have excellent ink adherence, because ink jet inks are more absorbent than toners or solid inks.
They should be scratch and kink resistant and have high densities for vibrant colors.
-Gold chloride - soluble chemical used in gold toners.
-Gold mean - compositional technique used to determine the "ideal" position of the main subject in the frame. It is based on creating a rectangle from a square.
What's more, some of the components used in toners are very hazardous. Sepia toner is a suspected carcinogen and most dangerous of all is Selenium toner (selenium is an extremely poisonous heavy metal).
Immerse your still wet print in the toner solution
Move the print to the stop bath (diluted per your toner's instructions) when it is as blue as you want it
Wash the print as you would normally do ...
Kodak's Selenium toner is a cumulative poison. I splashed about in it gloveless, with a cigarette in my mouth totally unaware of the harm that I have now done myself. . Then there is the waste of so much water for washing prints and film.
An electrically charged drum is hit with small beams of light Wherever the light hits, the drum loses its electrical charge. When toner is applied, its sticks to the non-charged parts of the drum.

Turned out the paper was printed and some of the toner was actually in contact with my flash.

Do not forget running costs: most printers have at least 2 cartridges and ink/toner cartridges need to be changed every 30-40 prints depending on usage and paper (more on this at a later date).

Sepia tone refers to the coloring of a black and white photographic print that has been toned with a sepia toner to simulate the faded brownish color of some early photographs.
In the analog photography is used a so called Sepia-Toner, to let Picture printouts look like bleached images. Some digital cameras offer this effect as an extra and gives images a brown-golden colour that resembles old photographs.
It uses a laser to write an image on an electrostatically charged drum. Wherever the laser strikes the drum an electrostatic charge is created. This charge attracts the fine toner powder which is then fused with heat onto the paper.
Successful previsualization required taking into account every aspect of the process, from film choice to exposure and processing technique, all the way through to the darkroom, including printing papers, developers and toners.
Color Efex also includes conversion filters that are task-specific:
Old Photo, Infrared Black & White, Paper Toner and Duplex Monochrome all allow you to quickly achieve predictable effects without surrendering control over the outcome.
One minor drawback to prints produced on color copiers is they are printed on plain, bond paper stock Color copiers use a laser device that fuses toner to paper to create the image. Some color copiers, such as the Canon Color Laser Copier 500 (fig.
