PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming method and an image forming device by which the lowering of image density, the increase of surface staining and toner scattering and further the occurrence of filming with the lapse of time are reduced especially in a system for re-cycling recovered toner to a developing part and further stable image quality is obtained over a long term even in the case of using small particle size toner. SOLUTION: In this image forming method, an electrostatic latent image formed on a latent image carrier is developed and the developed toner image is transferred to transfer material, and then the toner remaining on the latent image carrier is removed and the removed toner is re-cycled to the developing part. In the image forming method and device, a classifying means is used to re-cycle the removed toner to the developing part, and further the saturation magnetization of the toner is 0.01 to 10 emu/g, and the true specific gravity thereof is 1.35 to 1.60 g/cm<3> . |
