PURPOSE:To efficiently remove ozone in a region having high concn. of ozone near a drum by incorporating a substance having ozone removing performance into the compsn. of a toner. CONSTITUTION:A substance having ozone removing performance is incorporated into the compsn. of a toner used in an image forming device adopting a one-or two-component developing system. Active carbon is preferably substd. for part or all of carbon contained in the compsn. For example, toner particles 30 are composed of a resin binder 31, magnetic powder 32, added active carbon 33 and incorporated carbon 34 and the active carbon 33 are exposed so as to render ozone removing performance to the particles 30. |
