Toner having excellent heat-resistant storage property, fixing releasability, high transfer efficiency, good image quality of OHP sheet, developer using the toner, container containing toner, process cartridge, image forming apparatus, and Providing the manufacturing method. A toner manufacturing method according to the present invention includes a core particle granulation step in which a release agent is dispersed in a binder resin to form core particles, and the temperature range is 45 ° C. or higher, and the binder resin is used. A blooming step of annealing in a temperature atmosphere lower than the glass transition temperature by 3 ° C. or more to deposit the release agent on the surface of the core particles, and an encapsulation step of covering the surface of the core particles with a shell. The above problems can be achieved by the toner thus manufactured. [Selection] Figure 8 |
