An electrostatic latent-image developing toner comprising:
- a core particle and a shell layer formed on an outer portion thereof,
- wherein the shell layer comprises a crystalline polyester resin having a softening point from 60 to 120° C. at 70 to 100% by weight of the entire shell-layer constituent resin.
An image-forming method, comprising:
- forming an electrostatic latent image on a photosensitive member;
- forming a toner image by developing the electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive member;
- transferring the toner image onto a recording medium;
- and
- fixing the toner image on the recording medium,
- wherein the toner comprises a toner particle prepared by forming a shell layer on the surface of the core particle and the shell layer comprises a crystalline polyester resin having a softening point from 60 to 120° C. at 70 to 100% by weight of the entire shell-layer constituent resin.
