Summary: | Provided is a toner that can form a high-resolution image that is invisible under visible light and can be seen when irradiated with infrared light. The toner has toner particles containing a binding resin and inorganic infrared absorbing particles, wherein: (1) in spectral analysis of a fixed image obtained by fixing an unfixed image which is formed on a recording material using the toner and which has an application amount of 0.30 mg/cm2, the absorption rate of light in a wavelength range of 400-800 nm has a maximum value of 10% or less; and (2) in a cross-sectional observation of the toner particles using a transmission electron microscope, when a circle with a radius of 2.0 µm with the barycenter of a cross-sectional image of the toner particles as the center is drawn, and when this circle is subdivided into four quadrants, a fluctuation coefficient for the number of inorganic infrared absorbing particles observed in each quadrant is 0.50 or less. |
