A dispersible colorant is provided which comprises a colorant and a
chargeable resin pseudo fine particle of a size smaller than the size of
the colorant being fixed or fused to the colorant, wherein the colorant
itself has a surface charge. Thereby, it becomes possible to process a
surface of the colorant while exploiting both the characteristic of a
resin adhered and fixed to the surface of the colorant and the
characteristic of the surface of the colorant, so that it is possible to
provide a dispersible colorant that has sufficiently high dispersibility
and a simple and easy method of producing the colorant, by use of a
colorant that is essentially water-insoluble.
