Pressure or heated roller electrophoto image fixing uses halogen or nitrile containing polymer dispersed within resin binder as offset prevent toner

In an electrostatic photographic process which comprises providing an electrostatic image on a photosensitive plate for electrostatic photography, developing the electrostatic image with a powder developer to form a powder image, transferring the powder image onto a transfer sheet and fixing the powder image on the transfer sheet, the improvement which comprises causing the transfer sheet bearing the powder image to fall in contact with a surface of a fixing roller under application of heat or pressure, said powder developer comprising a binder medium and a pigment dispersed therein, said binder medium comprising (A) a thermoplastic or rubbery polymer containing a member selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom and a nitrile group at a concentration of at least 100 milliequivalents per 100 g of the polymer and (B) a binder having a melting temperature lower than that of the polymer (A) at an (A)/(B) mixing weight ratio of from 1/20 to 1/1, the halogen- or nitrile-containing polymer (A) being present in the form of fine particles dispersed in the continuous phase of the binder (B).
