Patent ID: 8298736

Claim:
A toner comprising: toner particles containing a binder resin and coloring matters, wherein the coloring matters comprise a dye represented by Formula (X-1), a metal compound represented by Formula (1) and a quinacridone pigment represented by Formula (2) and a total amount of the dye represented by Formula (X-1), the metal compound represented by Formula (1) and the quinacridone pigment represented by Formula (2) is 2-20 mass % based on the total mass of toner; wherein Rx 1 and Rx 2 each independently represent an alkyl group; Lx represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group; Gx 1 represents an alkyl group of 2 or more carbon atoms; Gx 2 represents an alkyl group or an aromatic hydrocarbon; Gx 3 represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, Gx 4 —CO—NH—, or Gx 5 —N(Gx 6 )-CO—, provided that Gx 4 is a substituent, and Gx 5 and Gx 6 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent; and Qx 1 , Qx 2 , Qx 3 , Qx 4 , and Qx 5 each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a substituent, wherein R 1 and R 2 each independently represent hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, a alkynyl group, an aryl group, a heterocyclic group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, an aryloxycarbonyl group, a sulfamoyl group, a sulfinyl group, an alkylsulfonyl group, a arylsulfonyl group, a cyano group, a trifluoroalkyl group or a nitro group, provided that one of R 1 and R 2 is an electron withdrawing group; R 3 represents an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an aryl group or a heterocyclic group, provided that a group represented by R 3 contains 3 carbon atoms or more; X represents Cu, Ni, or Co, wherein R 11 to R 18 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a halogen atom or a methoxy group.
