Problems solved by technology

However, since the fatty acid metal salt preferably used as lubricant particles is negatively chargeable, when the positively chargeable toner contains the fatty acid metal salt, the charge amount of the toner may decrease.
In addition, fine particles with a particle diameter of 1 μm or less tend to adhere to t

Abstract

The invention provides a developer for electrostatic latent image development. The developer for electrostatic latent image development including a positively chargeable toner and a fatty acid metal salt is used, in which the fatty acid metal salt is a metal salt selected from the group consisting of zinc, calcium, and magnesium salts of fatty acids of 12 to 20 carbon atoms and has a certain volume average particle diameter and particle size distribution. By using the developer for electrostatic latent image development, toner scattering or generation of image defects such as fog in the resulting images can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a developer for developing a positively charged electrostatic latent image used in an image forming apparatus and an image forming method using the above image forming apparatus, wherein the image forming apparatus has a conductive base formed of at least amorphous silicon. The latent image bearing part of the photosensitive layer and the cleaning part with an elastic blade. Background technique [0002] Generally, in the electrophotography method, after the latent image bearing part made of photoconductive photoreceptor is charged by corona charging or the like, the electrostatic latent image formed by exposing the charged latent image bearing part with laser light, LED, etc., Develop and visualize with a developer such as toner to form a high-quality image. [0003] Conventionally, as a latent image bearing portion used in the image forming method described above, a latent image bearing portion having a photosensitiv...
