IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, IMAGE FORMING METHOD, IMAGE FORMING TONER, IMAGE FORMING DEVELOPER, AND PROCESS CARTRIDGE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a high-speed image forming apparatus configured to satisfactorily prevent non-uniform gloss to be generated during fixation.SOLUTION: An image forming apparatus uses a fixing belt having a heat accumulation layer formed a silicone rubber material having high heat transport performance. Toner contains at least a mold release agent and a binder resin. A binder resin contains at least crystalline polyester resin and amorphous polyester resin. A value obtained by dividing a height W of a third fall peak point in an infrared absorption spectrum of the crystalline polyester resin obtained by infrared spectroscopy (KBr tablet method) using a fourier transform infrared spectral analyzer by a heigh R of a maximum rise peak point in the infrared absorption spectrum of the amorphous polyester resin obtained by the infrared spectroscopy is 0.045 to 0.850. An inorganic fine particle is contained in a toner base material 100 in a range of 0.80 to 5.00 parts.
