Provided is a toner that is excellent in low-temperature fixability and storage stability, and that can obtain a high image density without causing fogging or toner fusion even in long-term use. In a toner containing at least a binder resin, a crystalline polyester, and one or more release agents, The melting point (Tm1 [° C]) of at least one mold release agent and the melting point of the crystalline polyester (Tm2 [° C]) satisfy the relationship of the following formula (1): The outflow start temperature (Tfb [° C.]) of the toner and the melting point (Tm2 [° C.]) of the crystalline polyester satisfy the relationship of the following formula (2). Tm1 ≦ Tm2 + 10 [° C.] (1) Tm2 ≦ Tfb ≦ Tm2 + 12 [° C.] (2) [Selection figure] None |
