Abstract:
Provided are a toner and a toner manufacturing method with which high image density and a broad range of color reproduction are obtained, and with which high-quality images are also obtained. The toner is composed of toner particles that comprise a binding resin containing a polyester resin and a colorant, and contains 10-1,500 ppm of a metal element selected from titanium, germanium, and aluminum, and a cyclic phenol sulfide represented by general formula (1) selected from thiacalixarene, sulfinyl thiacalixarene and sulfonyl thiacalixarene.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of manufacturing an electrostatic charge image developing toner exhibiting reduced variation in charging amount among manufacturing lots, which is capable of generating no fog, and acquiring high density print images. Disclosed is a method of manufacturing an electrostatic charge image developing toner, possessing the step of washing toner mother particles having been formed in an aqueous medium with washing water, wherein the washing water has a total dissolution component amount of at least 0.05 mg/liter and less than 0.5 mg/liter.
