Abstract: The present invention provides a toner containing at least a binder resin, a releasing agent, and a colorant, wherein the binder resin contains at least a polyester resin (A) having a softening point Tm(A) of 120° C. to 160° C., a polyester resin (B) having a softening point Tm(B) of 80° C. or more and less than 120° C. and a composite resin (C) containing a condensation polymerization monomer and an addition polymerization monomer, at least any one of the polyester resins (A) and (B) is a polyester resin prepared by condensation-polymerizing an alcohol component substantially composed of only aliphatic alcohol with a carboxylic acid component, and 65% or more of the alcohol component is 1,2-propanediol.

Abstract: To provide a toner produced by emulsifying or dispersing in an aqueous medium particles containing at least polyester resin particles and by aggregating the polyester resin particles, wherein the polyester resin particles contain a polyester resin, the polyester resin is produced by condensation polymerization of an alcohol component containing 65 mol % or more 1,2-propanediol in a dihydroxy alcohol component and a carboxylic acid component containing purified rosin, and the softening point of the polyester resin is 80° C. or more and less than 120° C., and wherein the toner comprises a colorant and a releasing agent.

Abstract: To provide a toner including a binder resin and colorant and is granulated in aqueous medium, wherein the binder resin is a polymer having a polyester skeleton, the polyester skeleton is obtained by block copolymerization of a polyester skeleton A in which at least a constituent unit in which CH3—C*—H(—OH)(COOH) is dehydration condensed is contained in a repeated structure and a polyester skeleton B in which a constituent unit in which CH3—C*—H(—OH)(COOH) is dehydration condensed is not contained in a repeated structure, and an optical isomer ratio X (%) (monomer equivalent) is 80% or less, where the optical isomer ratio X (%)=|X (L-type)?X (D?type)| where X (L-type) denotes a ratio (%) of L-type (lactic acid monomer equivalent) and X (D-type) denotes a ratio (%) of D-type (lactic acid monomer equivalent)) in the constituent unit where CH3—C*—H(—OH)(COOH) is dehydration condensed.
