Summary:1. Field of the Invention Provided is an image forming method capable of forming an image at a high speed, simultaneously performing a low temperature fusing property and hot offset resistance and controlling gloss. The image forming method includes a developing step of forming a toner image by developing an electrostatic latent image formed on a latent image holding member by a developer containing at least a toner, a transferring step of forming a transfer image by transferring the toner image formed on the latent image holding member onto a transfer material, and a fusing step of fusing the toner image transferred on the transfer material. In the image forming method, the toner contains at least a colorant and a binder resin in which a principal component is a crystalline resin and the fusing step is performed by a fusing apparatus having a heat-fixing roll and an endless belt.
