PURPOSE:To allow the development of a digital latent image and an analog latent image to be executed by the same image forming device by using one- component type nonmagnetic toner particles which are specified in grain size, content and volume average grain size. CONSTITUTION:The one-component type nonmagnetic toner which contains 12 to 60 number % nonmagnetic toner particles having <=5mum grain size, contains 1 to 33 number % nonmagnetic toner particle having 8 to 12.7mum grain size, contains <=2.0vol. % nonmagnetic toner particles having <=16mum grain size and has the grain size distribution of 4 to 10mum volume average grain size of the one-component type nonmagnetic toner is used in the image forming method for transporting the one-component type nonmagnetic toner to a developing section to develop the images while regulating the toner to a thin thickness on a toner carrier. The digital latent image and the analog latent image are simultaneously developed to the sensible images in this way. |
