In a writing head for forming an electrostatic latent image on a cylindrical image carrier, a plurality of writing electrodes are arranged on a first face of a film substrate in a first direction parallel with an axial direction of the image carrier. The writing electrodes are adapted to be abutted against an outer periphery of the image carrier to provide electric charges thereto. A first wiring member are arranged on the first face of the film substrate to supply signals from a first electrode driver to a first electrode group in the writing electrodes. A second writing member are arranged on a second face of the film substrate to supply signals from a second electrode driver to the second electrode group in the writing electrodes.

A belt member is formed with a seam portion by overlapping and adhering both longitudinal end portions thereof to constitute an endless belt stretched and circulated by a rotative, first stretching member and a second stretching member. A length of the seam portion is no less than a length between a first point at which the endless belt is separated from one of the first stretching member and the second stretching member and a second point at which the endless belt is brought into contact with the other one of the first stretching member and the second stretching member.

A head device is for writing an electrostatic latent image on an image carrier of an image forming apparatus which is movable in a first direction. In the head device, a plurality of writing electrodes are arrayed on a substrate in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction to form a plurality of electrode arrays which are arranged in the first direction. The writing electrodes are brought into contact with the image carrier with a flexibility of the substrate. A head driver is disposed on the substrate. A plurality of wirings are extending in the first direction to connect the head driver and the respective writing electrodes to supply writing voltages from the head driver to the writing electrodes. At least one of the wirings extended through one of the writing electrodes in one of the electrode arrays is placed between adjacent ones of the writing electrodes in another one of the electrode arrays.

The width of a spacer which defines a gap between a development roller and an FPC is set to the width of a toner layer which is carried on the development roller or narrower. This prevents an edge portion of the spacer from getting deformed. In addition, as the spacer is made of a material whose work function is approximately the same as the work function of toner, it is possible to suppress disturbance of a surface potential of the toner layer. Further, for the purpose of maintaining the uniformity of the toner layer, it is desirable to restrict the amount of the toner on the development roller to a predetermined value or smaller.
