Abstract
An object of the present invention is achieved by an image forming method containing the steps of: forming a toner image by developing an electrostatic latent image with a toner; transferring the toner image on a recording medium; and fixing the toner image on the recording medium, wherein the fixing step of the toner image on the recording medium further contains the steps of: irradiating light having a wavelength range of 280 to 480 nm to the toner image; and applying pressure to the toner image.
