To provide a drying system of a toner which efficiently reduces the temperature dependence of even the toner coping with low temperature fixation without impairing its performance, obtains stable transferability and does not generate odor during heat fixing.
In the drying system of the electrostatic charge image developing toner, the apparatus which (a) includes a space for agitating or fluidizing the electrostatic charge image developing toner, (b) includes an agitating or fluidizing means, (c) can control the temperature of the electrostatic charge image developing toner to 30 to 60°C, and (d) can be ventilated at a rate of gas substitution with the outside within a range from 0.001 to 0.01 m3/min for each 1 kg of the electrostatic charge image developing toner, is used.
