A black toner for developing electrostatic latent images having colored particles and external additive(s) and the colored particles containing at least a binder resin, carbon black, a cyan pigment, a magenta pigment, and a yellow pigment. The concentration (CCB weight %) of carbon black, the concentration (CC weight %) of the cyan pigment, the concentration (CM weight %) of the magenta pigment, and the concentration (CY weight %) of the yellow pigment in the colored particles preferably satisfy the following relationship (1);CCB>/=CM>/=CC>/=CY(1).The black toner has the charging property, etc., suitable for forming black images and a high black density without showing color rendering. |
