Abstract
A color image forming method of the present invention includes at least an image forming step in which a color image formed by a transparent toner with at least one kind of fine particles of 5 to 30% by volume being contained in a binding resin and a color toner is formed on a transfer material and a heat-fixing step for heating and fixing the color image onto the transfer material. As a result, graininess, color reproducibility, smoothness, and fixing strength are synchronously fulfilled sufficiently without being deteriorated and an arbitrary glossiness can be uniformly reproduced on the transfer material without depending on image density.
