Abstract

A dry magnetic toner is formed of magnetic toner particles comprising a binder resin and magnetic iron oxide particles. The magnetic toner is provided with excellent developing performances and transferability by controlling the presence of isolated iron-containing particles and containing a high percentage of spherical particles, the amount of which is controlled relative to the weight-average particle size of the magnetic toner and a content of particles of 3 &mgr;m or below in the magnetic toner.
