PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus where the toner for developer can be sufficiently electrified even when used for a high speed copying machine, filming of toner, etc., is not generated on a photoreceptor surface, wear of the photoreceptor surface is extremely small even when eliminated by cleaning and hardly scarred so that a photoreceptor is not damaged, and to provide an image forming method and a toner. SOLUTION: In the image forming apparatus provided with a developing device where toner concentration in the developer on a developer carrier feeding the developer to the photoreceptor is raised and passing of the increased portion of the developer when the thickness of the layer of the developer is increased can be restricted, the toner is used in which additives consisting of inorganic particulates are added to base particles consisting of at least binding resin and colorants and magnetic carrier consists of at least magnetic body and a separation rate of the additives in the toner is from 0.5 to 20%. |
