Abstract:
Provided is a method for forming an image with a set of electrostatic charge image developing toners using a digital electrophotographic method, provided that the set of electrostatic charge image developing toners comprises a black toner and a light gray toner, the method comprising the steps of: forming an electrostatic latent image on an image support; developing the electrostatic latent image with the black toner to form a black toner image; developing the electrostatic latent image with the light gray toner to form a light gray toner image; and fixing the black toner image and the light gray toner image, wherein the black toner and the light gray toner each independently contains a wax having an endothermic peak in the range of 60 to 105° C.; and the light gray toner has a transmittance in the range of 40 to 90%.
