Abstract

In a process for producing toner particles by dispersing in an aqueous medium a polymerizable monomer composition containing at least a polymerizable monomer and a colorant and carrying out polymerization by the use of a polymerization initiator, the concentration of alcohol having 4 to 6 carbon atoms in the aqueous medium is so adjusted as to be from 500 ppm to 2,000 ppm when the polymerization conversion of the polymerizable monomer composition is 30%, and to be from 2,300 ppm to 10,000 ppm when the polymerization conversion of the polymerizable monomer composition is 97%.
