摘要:
A developer-carrying member to transport a developer having a carrier to a developing area facing an image carrying member in an image forming apparatus includes a sleeve. The sleeve carries the developer. The surface of the sleeve has a maximum roughness Rmax of one-sixth or greater than a particle diameter of the carrier, and a surface index of 1.5 or greater. The surface index is expressed by the equation of “surface index=Rmax/(Ltotal-LL),” in which LL is a measurement-range length selected from a roughness profile of the surface of the sleeve, Ltotal is a total surface distance of the developer-carrying member in the measurement-range length LL, and Rmax is a maximum roughness of the sleeve surface, defined by a difference between a maximum roughness value and a minimum roughness value on a roughness profile of the surface of the sleeve.
