Toner, toner cartridge, development device, and image forming apparatus
Abstract:
A toner includes binder resin 101 and a coloring agent 102. The coloring agent 102 is configured so that hue of a hue measurement print image printed on a print medium with the toner satisfies −8.6≤a*(Y)≤−7.9 and 93.4≤b*(Y)≤95.4, where a*(Y) and b*(Y) represent an a* value and a b* value of the hue measurement print image and light resistance F of a light resistance measurement print image printed on a print medium with the toner, after an irradiation test in which the light resistance measurement print image is irradiated with light having 0.36 W/m2 spectral irradiance at a wavelength of 340 nm for 663 hours, is higher than or equal to 70%. The toner is configured so that its melt viscosity at 120° C. is higher than or equal to 1400 Pa·s and lower than or equal to 1600 Pa·s.
