<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide electrostatic latent image developing toner capable of forming a stable image for a long period and free from the occurrence of background soil and a defective white-spotted image, and whose cleaning performance is extremely improved by preventing the wear of a fur brush, preventing toner from melt-sticking to the brush, as for a fur brush cleaning system, and also, to provide an image forming method and an image forming device using the toner. SOLUTION: As for the image forming method, the following process is repeatedly performed; a photoreceptor is electrified, then, an image is exposed so as to form an electrostatic latent image, then, the latent image is developed by developer so as to form a toner image, and the toner image is transferred to a transfer material, thereafter, the residual toner is cleaned and removed by the fur brush for removing the toner sticking on the photoreceptor, a housing surrounding the fur brush and a suction blower for sucking the air in the housing, and as for the toner, the variance coefficient of the shape coefficient is <=16%, and the number variance coefficient of the number size distribution is <=27%.</p> |
