(57) [Problem] Even if a hot roller fixing method is used in combination with a polymerization method toner having a small toner particle size and a uniform particle size distribution and shape, unevenness of paper and the surface of the hot roller can be obtained. An electrostatic latent image developing toner capable of forming a high-quality image without causing deformation of the toner particles sufficiently to conform to irregularities of the toner and without causing a fixing defect, and an image forming method and an image forming apparatus using the same. provide. SOLUTION: The average circularity is in the range of 0.94 to 0.98, the average value of the circle equivalent diameter is in the range of 2.6 to 7.4 μm, and the inclination of the circularity with respect to the circle equivalent diameter is −0.005 to 0.005. − 0.001. A toner for developing an electrostatic latent image, which is 0.001. |
