Abstract

A toner for producing electrostatic latent images is produced by smoothing classified resinous particles so that the ratio of the smallest diameter to the largest diameter thereof is 0.70-0.90, mixing the smoothed base particles (A) with modifier particles (B) to attach the modifier particles (B) to the surfaces of the base particles (A), and fixing the modifier particles (B) to the base particles (A) under the action of a mechanical impact force.
