Abstract
Abstract A magnetic toner comprises a binder resin and a magnetic material. The magnetic toner has a volume average particle diameter of not more than 9 µm and the variation coefficient of particle size distribution, (σT/D) x 100, of the magnetic toner satisfies the following condition: 25 ≦ (σT/D) x 100 ≦ 35 where D represents a volume average particle diameter (µm) of the magnetic toner and σT represents a value of standard deviation of the volume particle size distribution of the magnetic toner, The magnetic material has a number average particle diameter of from 0.1 µm to 0.2 µm and the variation coefficient of particle size distribution, (σ/ X ) x 100, of the magnetic material satisfies the following condition: (σ/ X ) x 100 ≦ 40 where X represents a number average particle diameter (µm) of the magnetic material and σ represents a value of standard deviation of the number particle size distribution of the magnetic material.
