To provide a magnetic toner which has superior low-temperature fixing performance and pressure roller anti-staining properties even in various forms of use, has been kept from image defects such as image non-uniformity even during long-time image reproduction and can achieve high-level image quality. In a magnetic toner having toner particles containing at least a binder resin and a magnetic material, the activation energy Ea (kJ/mol) that is determined from a shift factor aT 120 in a master curve of the toner, prepared when 120°C is set as reference temperature, and the activation energy Eb (kJ/mol) that is determined from a shift factor aT 150 in a master curve of the toner, prepared when 150°C is set as reference temperature, satisfy Expression (1), and the Ea is 110 kJ/mol or less: 1.00 ≤ Ea / Eb 1.20
摘要:
An image-forming method is provided which can provide stable image density irrespective of use environments and does not cause image defects such as fogging, tailing, or transfer voids, even when being applied to a developing sleeve with a reduced diameter. In the image-forming method, a latent image bearing member and a toner bearing member bearing a magnetic toner on its surface and having inside a unit for generating a magnetic field are placed with a predetermined interval, and an alternating field is applied between the latent image bearing member and the toner bearing member, and an electrostatic latent image borne by the latent image bearing member is developed with the magnetic toner. The toner bearing member has an outer diameter of 5.0 mm or more and less than 12.0 mm, and the magnetic toner has an average circularity of 0.950 or more and a compressibility of 30 or less obtained from the following expression (1): Compressibility = 1 - apparent density / tap density × 100 The total energy of the toner measured with a powder flowability measuring apparatus satisfies a specific value.
