I want to render with cartoon tones but poser always renders with colours except preview rendering in that time I can't use real shadows. Is there any other way of cartoon rendering with just only poser (I am using poser 7)

You could use toon shaders in the material room. I believe there are some in the free section, if not, I know there are some in the Rendo marketplace.

Joe_Anomaly is right, you will need some fitting materials.

Trekkiegirl has made some for P5, which should work in P7 also, for free - trekkiegrrrl.dk/

Ockham made a phyton script for the Z-Flatten-technique, which gives some cartoony look too, search for it here in freestuff. This takes the deepness out of pictures, for a cartoony look - very different from what other toon shaders look like.

There are other toon materials here in freestuff. Comercialy available are actions for Photoshop post processing, and of course Oliviers Art shaders - which are not cheap, but surely not bad either.

This list is probably incomplete, others are invited to add to it.....
