Abstract

The toner, a powder paint used in laser printers and photocopiers to format text and images on paper has a high level of technological sophistication. Its properties and handling of forms have been researched intensively. It was then proposed a handmade way of handling this ink to a more significant purpose, an ink without solvent that can be used in the plastic arts primarily in the spray area. Understanding that it is not necessary to develop a new material, but use it in other ways, the research has several manipulations and the results obtained from diverse experiments using easy technology so that artists could express themselves without the need of equipment, tools and professionals.
