摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a two-component developer which can achieve a high-definition image with a smaller toner laid-on level than a conventional one, provides a color gamut comparable to that of printing, can respond to an increase in printing speed, and allows an image with a stable tinge to be formed even in long-term use. The object can be achieved by a two-component developer containing a cyan toner and a magnetic carrier, the two-component developer being characterized in that the cyan toner has the following characteristics: (i) when the concentration of the cyan toner in a solution of the cyan toner in chloroform is represented by Cc (mg/ml) and the absorbance of the solution at a wavelength of 712 nm is represented by A712, a relationship between Cc and A712 satisfies the relationship of 2.00 * and chroma C * of the cyan toner determined in a powder state satisfy the relationships of 25.0 ≤ L * ≤ 40.0 and 50.0 ≤ C * ≤ 60.0; and (iii) the absolute value for the triboelectric charge quantity of the cyan toner measured by a two-component method using the cyan toner and the magnetic carrier is 50 mC/kg or more and 120 mC/kg or less.

A used developer-carrying member having a resin coating layer on a substrate is regenerated through a step of scraping the resin coating layer of the used developer-carrying member to form a developer-carrying member surface having unevenness showing a central line-average roughness Ra of at most 0.8 µm, and a step of coating the developer-carrying member surface having the unevenness with a coating layer of a resinous composition comprising at least a binder resin and electroconductive fine powder. The regenerated developer-carrying member can be reinstalled in a developing apparatus and subjected to repetitive electrophotographic image forming cycles.
