A toner of the present invention is a toner comprising an additive and a
toner matrix that contains a binder resin, a colorant, and a wax, in
which the additive contains an inorganic micropowder to whose surface
polysiloxane and at least one selected from fatty acids and derivatives
thereof are adhered. Thus, the present invention provides the toner, a
two-component developer, and an image forming method with which oil-less
fixing is possible without the use of an oil on a fixing roller.
Furthermore, the present invention provides the two-component developer
that causes less carrier deterioration by toner-spent even when used in
combination with a toner containing wax or another such release agent and
thus the developer has good durability. In addition, the present
invention provides the toner, the two-component developer, and the image
forming method with which partial transfer defects are reduced and high
transfer efficiency can be obtained.
