摘要:
An image formation method includes the steps of charging the surface of an electrophotographic photoconductor, exposing the charged photoconductor to a light image to form a latent electrostatic image on the photoconductor, developing the latent electrostatic image using a two-component developer containing a toner and a carrier to obtain a toner image, and transferring the toner image to an image receiving material directly or via an intermediate transfer member, with the photoconductor showing a surface friction coefficient of 0.40 or less, and the toner having toner particles with an average circularity of 0.930 or more.
