<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a one-component toner to be used to develop an electrostatic latent image so that an image with high image density and good contrast can be stably produced. SOLUTION: This toner is used for such an image forming method that a toner is supplied as a thin layer on a developer carrying body and a latent image on a latent image holding body is developed into a visible image by the developer carrying body. The toner essentially consists of a binder resin and a coloring agent, to which at least a fluidity adding agent and resin fine particles having 10 to 20 hardness are added. The toner shows <=20% aggregation degree.</p> |
