An image forming toner, a toner supply method, and a process cartridge that are excellent in low-temperature fixability and storability and that form a uniform image even with a small particle diameter are provided. To A binder resin, -OOC-R-COO- (CH 2) n- ( where in the above formulas, R represents a straight-chain unsaturated aliphatic group having 2 to 20 carbon atoms, n represents A crystalline resin containing at least 60 mol% of the total ester bond in the whole resin, and a hybrid resin component containing a styrene acrylic resin and a polyester resin. The content A of the crystalline polyester resin and the content B of the hybrid resin component satisfy the relationship of the following formula (1), and the number average particle diameter of the toner measured by Coulter Counter TA-II is 3.5 to 6.5 μm. A toner having a peak top molecular weight MPT of 2500 to 4800. 1 / 2A ≦ B ≦ 3A (1) [Selection] Figure 1 |
