Provided is an image forming method that does not cause image deletion or other image quality defects even when an image forming process is repeated using a photoconductor having a high hardness surface. An electrophotographic photoreceptor has a surface layer containing a siloxane-based resin having a charge transporting property and a cross-linked structure, and an electrophotographic developer contains a binder resin, a release agent, and magnetic metal fine particles. An image forming method, wherein the solubility of the magnetic metal fine particles in a 1 mol / l HNO 3 aqueous solution at 50 ° C. is 500 mg / g · l or less. [Selection diagram] None |
