Abstract
A numerical integration method is used to simulate the motion of a gro up of toner particles under the influence of multiple force fields and elastic collisions as the particles travel from a developer sleeve to a paper surface. Forces and force fields acting on the toner particle s are described in equation form and entered into a personal computer application program for integration in selectable time steps. A repres entative simulation is described using a TonerJet print zone as an exa mple.
