Abstract: A transfer device includes a conveyance belt, a transfer roller, and a stretch roller. The conveyance belt is in contact with an image carrier that carries a toner image, and conveys a sheet via a contact position with the image carrier. A voltage having a polarity opposite to a charging polarity of toner that forms the toner image is applied to the transfer roller, and the transfer roller transfers the toner image carried by the image carrier onto the sheet at the contact position. The stretch roller stretches the conveyance belt at a separation position in which the sheet is separated from the conveyance belt and which is downstream of the contact position in a conveyance direction in which the sheet is conveyed by the conveyance belt, and the voltage having the polarity opposite to the charging polarity of the toner is applied to the stretch roller.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a photosensitive drum; a transfer belt configured to be charged to an opposite polarity to the surface of the photosensitive drum to electrostatically attract a recording paper sheet and convey the sheet while pressing the sheet against the photosensitive drum, thereby transferring a toner image formed on the surface of the photosensitive drum to the sheet; a fixing section configured to apply heat to the recording paper sheet having the toner image transferred thereto and thus fix the toner image on the sheet; a toner collecting member disposed to face a separating position where the recording paper sheet is separated from the transfer belt and extending in a width direction of the sheet being conveyed, the toner collecting member being electrically grounded; and a thermally conductive member configured to collect heat near the fixing section and conduct the collected heat to the toner collecting member.

Abstract: A developing device includes a developer supporting rotator, toner supporting rotator and voltage application unit. The toner supporting rotator is arranged opposite to a developer supporting rotator, supports toner supplied from the developer supporting rotator, and forms a toner layer by a magnetic brush. The voltage application unit causes the toner supported by the toner supporting rotator to an electrostatic latent image on a surface of an image carrier to develop it into a toner image. A longitudinal end portion of the toner supporting side magnetic member is positioned longitudinally more outside than a longitudinal end portion of the developer supporting side magnetic member. A surface of the second rotating sleeve positioned more outside than the end of the developer supporting side magnetic member is composed of a surface of low adherence with lower toner adherence and a higher dielectric constant than those of a surface positioned inside thereof.
