Abstract:
The liquid developer according to the present invention includes a toner particle containing a polyester resin and a pigment and includes a carrier liquid comprising a nonaqueous solution, the polyester resin contains a monomer unit derived from trimellitic acid, and the content of the monomer unit derived from trimellitic acid in the total acid component-derived monomer unit constituting the polyester resin is from 2.0 mol % to 60.0 mol %, the polyester resin also contains a monomer unit derived from an ethylene oxide adduct on bisphenol A, and the content of the monomer unit derived from the ethylene oxide adduct on bisphenol A in the total alcohol component-derived monomer unit constituting the polyester resin is from 50.0 mol % to 100.0 mol %, and the average circularity of the toner particle is at least 0.950.

Claim (Index 9):
The method for producing a liquid developer according to  claim 6 , wherein\n the liquid developer further contains a toner particle dispersing agent, and the toner particle dispersing agent contains a polymer that has a monomer unit represented by the following formula (A) and a monomer unit represented by the following formula (B),\n \ue8a0K\ue8a0\u2003\u2003formula (A) \n in formula (A), K is a monomer unit that has a primary amino group, and\n \ue8a0Q\ue8a0\u2003\u2003formula (B) \n in formula (B), Q is a monomer unit that has a possibly substituted alkyl group having at least 6 carbons, a possibly substituted cycloalkyl group having at least 6 carbons, a possibly substituted alkylene group having at least 6 carbons, or a possibly substituted cycloalkylene group having at least 6 carbons.
