Toner for use in electrophotography, image formation method using the toner, method of producing the toner, and apparatus for producing the toner

摘要

A toner is proposed which includes toner particles and a fluidity-imparting agent and which has characteristics that when the toner is sieved with a 500-mesh sieve, the residue of the toner on the sieve has a circularity of from 0.93 to 0.97 and when 100 g of the toner is sieved with a 500-mesh sieve, the residue of the toner on the sieve has a weight not greater than 10 mg. The toner is for use in an electrophotographic image formation method using an intermediate image transfer method. A full-color image formation method, using this toner, and an image formation apparatus in which this toner is used are also proposed.
