Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an electrographic toner, which is used for an image forming method of electrophotography, and particularly, used for mono-component development. The toner has a stable charge property, can form a toner layer on a developing sleeve wherein the thickness thereof is suitable and uniform, can achieve long-life property while a high image density is maintained (an image having a high image density is printed even when a large number of printings are conducted in succession), and achieves small toner consumption. In order to achieve this, an electrophotographic toner is proposed wherein at least inorganic particles, conductive metal oxide fine particles and carbon black are adhered to the surface of matrix toner particles, and the inorganic particles are surface-treated with cyclic silazane and have the specific surface area of 100 to 175 m2/g. It is preferable that the toner has the degree of circularity of 0.890 to 0.975.
