Patent ID: 7090951

Claim:
A non-magnetic toner comprising at least a binder resin, a coloring agent, and a wax, wherein: (a) a deformation amount of the toner (R 200 ) at the time of application of a load of 200 g at a temperature of 120° C. is in a range of 45% to 75%; (b) a deformation amount of the toner (R 500 ) at the time of application of a load of 500 g at a temperature of 120° C. is in a range of 65% to 85%; (c) there is at least one endothermic peak or shoulder in a range at 60 to 120° C. in a DSC curve at the time of temperature rise measured by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC); and (d) the coloring agent is present in amounts from 1 to 15 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the binder resin.
