Abstract
An image forming method is disclosed. The method comprises processes in which a latent image on an electrophotographic photoreceptor is developed employing a developer material, and after transferring the visualized toner image to a recording material, the remaining toner on said photoreceptor is removed employing an elastic body cleaning blade. The electrophotographic photoreceptor comprises a surface layer containing a charge transportable polysiloxane hardenable resin, and said developer material comprises a fatty acid metal salt.
