摘要:
A toner for electrophotography, comprising toner particles and an additive, is obtained by mixing toners A and B together which are obtained by respectively adding the additive to each of at least two toner particle groups (a) and (b) having different particle size distributions. The average particle size of the toner particle group (a) is smaller than that of the toner particle group (b), and the amount of additive in the toner A is larger than that in the toner B. The toner reduces the differences in development conditions between different particle sizes due to broadening of toner particle size distribution, thereby enabling a stable image quality to be obtained which maintains a high image density for an extended period of time and is relatively free from fog generation in non-image portions.

A developing device for an image forming apparatus such as a copying machine, a printer, or the like to develop an electrostatic latent image on an image carrier includes a toner carrier which moves while carrying a toner on its surface, and a regulating member for regulating the amount of toner on the toner carrier by applying a moving force to the toner in a direction opposite to the moving direction of the toner carrier. In a regulating portion defined by the regulating member, a convey force received by a toner portion, which does not contact the surface of the toner carrier, from the regulating member is larger than a convey force received from the toner carrier.

A developing device including a developing agent container for storing a developing agent composed of toner particles and magnetic carrier particles, a toner carrier for carrying and conveying the toner particles to supply the toner particles to an image carrier for carrying an electrostatic image, and a developing agent regulating rotary member, disposed adjacent the toner carrier with a gap therebetween, for forming a brush of the magnetic carrier particles by a magnetic force between itself and the toner carrier. The regulating rotary member allows only the toner to pass therethrough without substantially allowing passage of the carrier.

A stationary magnet is disposed in a developing sleeve for carrying a one component magnetic developer. A regulating sleeve for regulating a layer of the developer is disposed opposed to the developing sleeve. The regulating sleeve rotates in the same direction as the developing sleeve. In the regulating sleeve, there is disposed a magnet or magnetic member cooperative with the stationary magnet to form a magnetic field in a gap between the developing sleeve and the regulating sleeve.
