Abstract: A toner for electrostatic latent image development of the present invention includes toner particles containing toner mother particles and an external additive. The external additive contains fatty acid metal salt particles, and a volume based particle diameter (size) distribution of the fatty acid metal salt particles has two peaks on a side of smaller size and a side of larger size, respectively. A volume based mean particle diameter of the fatty acid metal salt particles having the peak on the side of smaller size is 3.0 μm or smaller and a volume based mean particle diameter of the fatty acid metal salt particles having the peak on the side of larger size is larger than a volume based mean particle diameter of the toner mother particles.

Abstract: Provided is an image forming method, in which excellent cleaning properties are obtained for a long period of time even when the process is employed to an image forming apparatus with a charging roller for charging a photoreceptor, and a favorable image can be formed while inhibiting occurrence of a black spots-like image defect even in a high temperature and high humidity environment. In the image forming method, charging of a photoreceptor in a charging step is performed by a charging roller. A toner for electrostatic image development includes toner base particles added with an external additive. The external additive contains at least first external additive particles composed of a polytetrafluoroethylene and second external additive particles composed of at least one selected from a fatty acid metal salt and an amide wax. The number average molecular weight of the polytetrafluoroethylene constituting the first external additive particles is 500 to 20,000, and the second external additive particles are added in a ratio of 0.01 to 0.5 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the toner base particles.
