(57) [Problem] To provide an image forming method capable of obtaining a high quality multi-sheet image with almost no toner contamination of a contact charging roller. A photoconductor is charged by a contact charging roller to which a bias is applied, an electrostatic image is formed on the charged photoconductor, and the electrostatic image is formed by a toner comprising at least a binder resin and a colorant. Developing, transferring the toner image to a transfer material, and heating and fixing the toner on the transfer material, wherein the surface resistance of the contact charging roller is 20 to 160 MΩ, and the amount of the residual monomer in the toner is Is less than 300 ppm. |
