Patent ID: 8268522

Claim:
A toner set for electrostatic image development, comprising: at least one colored toner comprising a coloring agent and a first noncrystalline polyester resin as a first binder resin; and a transparent toner comprising mother particles, a coloring agent in an amount of 0 to 1 wt. % based on a weight of the transparent toner, and a crystalline polyester resin and a second noncrystalline polyester resin as a second binder resin, wherein a content of the crystalline polyester resin in the transparent toner is from about 2 to about 10 wt. % based on the weight of the crystalline polyester resin and the second noncrystalline polyester resin of the second hinder resin, a proportion of particles in the mother particles of the transparent toner having a shape factor of 0.94 or less is about 5% by number or less based on particles having a particle diameter of 7.5 to 15 μm, a reflectance of the mother particles of the transparent toner is about 90% or more for light at a wavelength of 700 nm, and a volume average particle diameter D 50v of the transparent toner is 3.0 μm to 9.0 μm.
