Abstract

A method for producing a toner includes a step (1) of forming resin microparticles in an aqueous medium in the presence of a surfactant, a step (2) of aggregating the resin microparticles to form aggregated particles, and a step (3) of heating and the aggregated particles and allowing the aggregated particles to coalesce to form toner particles, in which a resin component in the resin microparticles contains an olefinic copolymer and resin A, the resin A has an acid value of 1 mgKOH/g or more and 50 mgKOH/g or less, the resin A has a SP value of 19.0 (J/cm3)0.5 or more and 21.0 (J/cm3)0.5 or less, and the resin component has an olefinic copolymer content of 50% by mass or more with respect to the total mass of the resin component.
