More Information
Summary:An image forming method including electrostatic image forming step, developing step, transferring step, fixing step and oil application step for applying an oil to a fixing member, wherein the toner includes a binder resin, a colorant and a wax, and the relationship (A2/A1) x 100 < 200 is satisfied, wherein A1 represents the area of the oil dropped on a pellet of the toner measured 30 seconds after dropping the oil, and A2 represents the area of the dropped oil measured 24 hours after dropping the oil. Alternatively, the relationships (X1 - X2) < 0.5 atomic percent, X1 > 1.0 atomic percent, and X2 > 1.0 atomic percent, are satisfied, wherein X1 and X2 represent amounts of Si atoms of the silicone oil measured by subjecting the toner image to X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy at times 5 minutes and 24 hours, respectively, after fixing the toner image.
