A flash fixing color toner for use in an image forming process includes a binder resin and a hue-altering coloring agent, wherein the hue-altering coloring agent alters, at a time of irradiation of flash light, an initial hue of the color toner into a secondary hue, so that the color toner is fixed to a recording medium by the irradiation of flash light, and a color image is substantially formed with the secondary hue of the color toner. |
