摘要： A seal member 264 prevents leakage of developer to the side of a photosensitive drum 10 when cleaning the surface of the photosensitive drum 10 of a color printer 1, and has a contact portion 264a and a movement control portion 264b. The contact portion 264a, through which developer is unable to pass, is able to deform elastically in a direction, and to approach and to separate from the surface of the photosensitive drum 10, able to be in line contact with the surface of the photosensitive drum 10 such that developer is unable to pass between the surface of the photosensitive drum 10 and the contact portion 264a. The movement control portion 264b is connected to the contact portion 264a, and configured to control the movement of the seal member 264 with the rotation of the photosensitive drum 10 of the contact portion 264a.

摘要： Of carrier liquids extracted by an carrier liquid extracting device from a liquid developer obtained by mixing together yellow, cyan, magenta, and black liquid developers, the carrier liquid of particularly high purity is recycled for concentration control of the yellow liquid developer and the carrier liquid of purity a little lower than the aforementioned purity is recycled for concentration control of the cyan, magenta, and black liquid developers. A carrier liquid extracted from the yellow liquid developer is recycled for the concentration control of the yellow liquid developer, and a carrier liquid extracted from the liquid developer obtained by mixing together the cyan, magenta, and black liquid developers is recycled for the concentration control of the cyan, magenta, and black liquid developers. This permits efficient use of carrier liquids to be recycled without having an influence on the image quality.

摘要： In the intermediate transfer belt of the present invention, a toner image formed on a plurality of photoreceptors is transferred and temporarily retained. The intermediate transfer belt comprises a reinforcing layer to reinforce the intermediate transfer belt and a surface protection layer that is stacked on the reinforcing layer through a middle layer and contacts the photoreceptors. The reinforcing layer and the surface protection layer have a larger value of surface resistance than a value of volume resistance of the whole belt. This makes it possible to prevent electric charge (voltage) from flowing out to rollers and image forming units and put proper electric charge (voltage) on the intermediate transfer belt. Preferably, the values of surface resistance of the reinforcing layer and the surface protection layer are 1×1010 to 1×1014 Ω/□ and the value of volume resistance of the whole intermediate transfer belt is less than 1×1010 Ω·cm.
