Abstract:
A toner includes toner particles. The toner particles each include a toner core and a shell layer covering a surface of the toner core. The toner core contains composite particles. The composite particles are particles of a composite of a releasing agent, an electrically conductive polymer, and a dopant. A ratio of an amount of the composite particles to a mass of the toner cores is at least 0.5% by mass and no greater than 15.0% by mass.

Claim (Index 6):
An image forming method comprising:\n developing by a development section an electrostatic latent image on an image bearing member into a toner image with a toner supplied from a toner accommodation section; transferring by a transfer section the toner image on the image bearing member to a recording medium; and fixing by a fixing section to the recording medium the toner image transferred to the recording medium, wherein the toner is the toner according to  claim 1 , and in the fixing, the shell layers of the toner particles of the toner forming the toner image are fractured by the fixing section to cause attachment of the composite particles contained in the toner cores to a surface of the fixing section.
