A non-magnetic toner including a binder resin including a first resin, a second resin, a third resin; a colorant; and a wax, wherein the first resin is a hybrid resin including an amorphous condensation polymerization unit and a radical polymerization unit in its molecular frame, and the second and third resins are non-hybrid resins including condensation polymerization units, wherein each of the first, second and third resins has a glass transition temperature (Tg) and a softening point (Tm) satisfying the following relationships: n Tg of first resin<Tg of second resin<Tg of third resin, which is from 70 to 80° C., and n Tm of second resin<Tm of third resin<Tm of first resin, and n wherein the binder resin includes the first resin in an amount of from 10 to 20% and the third resin of from 25 to 45% by weight. |
