ABSTRACT:
Provided is an electrophotographic developing agent including: toner particles including a binder resin, a colorant, and a charge control agent; and an external additive added to the surface of the toner particles, wherein the external additive includes at least one inorganic particulate component and at least two types of strontium titanate particulate component having different mean primary particle diameters. Typically, the inorganic particulate component is not strontium titanate. Also, an electrophotographic image forming apparatus using the electrophotographic developing agent is provided. The strontium titanate particulate component having different mean primary particle diameters are used as an external additive to maintain uniform charging characteristics and to prevent fog in a non-image area, thereby obtaining good image quality. In addition, the external additives prevent deposition of the developing agent on a developing agent regulating blade due to stress when the developing agent is used for a long time.
