摘要： A toner for developing electrostatic images is formed of toner particles comprising (a) a binder resin, (b) a colorant or magnetic material, (c) an aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid (A), and (d) a metal compound of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid (A). The aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid (A) and the metal compound of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid (A) are contained in a weight ratio of 1:99 to 10:90. As a result of co-inclusion of a small amount of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid (A) in addition to the metal compound thereof, the resultant toner is provided with a quick chargeability in a low humidity environment and an improved level of triboelectric charge in a high humidity environment, presumably because of the stabilization effect of the small amount of the aromatic hydroxycarboxylic acid (A) on the metal compound thereof.

摘要： A toner for developing an electrostatic image is formed from toner particles containing a binder resin, a colorant, and a charge-controlling agent. The charge-controlling agent comprises an aromatic oxycarboxylic acid, a metal compound of the aromatic oxycarboxylic acid, and an inorganic compound formed from an inorganic anion and an inorganic cation. The aromatic oxycarboxylic acid, the metal compound of the aromatic carboxylic acid and the inorganic anion are contained in proportions of A (wt. %), B (wt. %) and C (ppm), respectively, satisfying the following conditions: 1/99.ltoreq.A/B.ltoreq.20/80, and 10.sup.2 .ltoreq.C. Because of the inclusion of an inorganic compound providing a sufficient amount of inorganic anion, the charge-controlling agent shows a stable charge-controlling characteristic, and the resultant toner exhibits a stable developing performance and transferability in continuous image formation in various environmental conditions.

摘要： A magenta toner for developing electrostatic images is formed of a binder resin, and a quinacridone pigment providing an X-ray diffraction spectrum showing two peaks in a Bragg angle (2.theta.) region of 5-10 deg. The magenta toner has an improved light fastness, may have a desired hue comparable to a printing process ink and is suitably used for electrophotographic full-color image formation. The magenta toner may preferably be formed through a process including a first kneading step starting from wet blending of a binder resin and two paste pigments including quinacridone and 2,9-dimethylquinacridone, respectively, under mild conditions not causing crystal transformation to form a master batch and a second kneading step of diluting the master batch together with other additive.

Additionally, there is a two-component developer for developing electrostatic images which consists of a toner and the carrier. An image forming method in which the two-component developer having the toner and the carrier is transported to a developing zone which is defined by a latent image carried on a latent image bearing member to develop the latent image. A voltage is applied to the developer to direct the toner from the latent image bearing member to a member carrying the developer. A second voltage directs the toner from the developer toward the latent image and a third voltage developer the latent image using the toner of the two-component developer.
