Abstract: This invention relates to image formation toner, 2-component developer, image formation method and method for manufacturing image formation toner, for preventing clogging of the filter. Toner is used in which the ratio of the component measured by GPC to have a molecular weight between 500 to 1000 is 10 parts by weight or less with respect to 100 parts by weight of the entire toner. Since the case of clogging of the HEPA filter is the 500 to 1000 molecular weight component, clogging of the filter is prevented by reducing this component.
