Abstract:
1. A toner for developing an electrostatic latent image comprising a releasing agent containing a hydrocarbon, a binder resin, and a colorant, wherein, when an average carbon number of the hydrocarbon is designated as N, the average carbon number N of the hydrocarbon is from 850 to 1,790, the hydrocarbon contains components having a carbon number in the range of (N−10) to (N+10) in an amount of 70% by mass or more in the entire hydrocarbon and has a weight-average molecular weight of from approximately 12,000 to approximately 25,000, and the toner is a photo fixing toner that is fixed at a temperature of 300° C. or higher through delayed photofixing wherein multiple flash lamps are lighted at certain time intervals.
