A method for producing a toner including the step of melt-kneading a mixture containing a resin binder and a wax with a twin-screw kneader, wherein the resin binder contains three kinds of a resin R1, a resin R2 and a resin R3 having different softening points to each other, wherein the wax contains at least two kinds of a wax W2 and a wax W3 having different melting points to each other, wherein the softening points of R1, R2 and R3 and the melting point W2 meet certain relationships, and wherein the mixture is supplied to the twin-screw kneader in an amount of from 1.3 to 5.0 kg/hr·cm2 per unit cross-sectional area of the screw. The toner obtainable by the method of the present invention can be suitably used in, for example, the development or the like of latent image formed in electrophotography, an electrostatic recording method, an electrostatic printing method, or the like.
