The invention provides novel colored toner and developer compositions
containing polymeric colorants. Such compositions may contain
poly(oxyalkylene) or poly(alkylester) substituted color chromophores
which are attached to relatively long chained ologomers. The color toner
and developer compositions of the invention resist color bleeding and
aggregation, and may retain their color fidelity over extended time
periods. Such color toner compositions are useful in color imaging
systems. The invention provides novel compositions that can readily be
formulated and manufactured using the polymeric or oligomeric colorants.
The toners of the invention may contain charge control agents,
thermoplastic resins, colorants, and additives.
