Quoting Herbert H Gottlieb <herbgottlieb@JUNO.COM>:
Is there any difference in
the various brands that are sold for different laser
printers?
Yes.
I believer that laser toner is essentially
fine grains of carbon.
It's not.
It's a mixture. The ingredients are highly engineered.
Particle size. Electrostatic properties. Magnetic properties.
Melting points. Yada yada. For a very basic introduction, see

Don't play with it without taking proper precautions. Like all
fine powders, you don't want to get it in your lungs. Also, it
makes a mess.
