IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus, including: an exposure unit configured to expose an image bearing member to light according to image data to form an electrostatic latent image; a developing unit configured to develop the electrostatic latent image into a toner image; a transfer unit configured to transfer the toner image onto a recording medium; a fixing unit configured to fix the toner image to the recording medium by heat; a determination unit configured to determine a state of at least one of a temperature and a humidity in an inside of the image forming apparatus; a blower unit configured to generate an airflow in the inside of the image forming apparatus; and a control unit configured to reduce an airflow volume of the blower unit based on a determination result of the determination unit as a degree of occurrence of dew condensation increases.
