An image forming system includes an image forming device configured to form an image on a recording material using a color toner and a transparent toner, a fixing device, a glossing device that has a conveying device which conveys the recording material, a heating device heating the recording material, and a cooling device cooling the recording material, and a controller controlling said image forming device so that an amount of the transparent toner per unit area on the recording material in a first image forming mode in which the image is formed using said fixing device and said glossing device is smaller than the amount of the transparent toner per unit area on the recording material in a second image forming mode in which the image is formed using said fixing device without using said glossing device.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus including: colored toner image forming devices each developing an electrostatic image with colored toner to form a colored toner image; a transparent toner image forming device developing an electrostatic image with transparent toner to form a transparent toner image; a transfer device superimposing and transferring the colored toner images and the transparent toner image on a transfer medium; and a fixing device fixing the superimposed toner images on the transfer medium. An image forming operation by the transparent toner image forming device is controlled in such a manner that the heights of the superimposed toner images fixed by the fixing device are substantially constant. The transparent toner has an absolute value for a charge amount per unit weight smaller than an absolute value for the charge amount of each of the colored toners per unit weight.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus capable of variably controlling a condition with which toner sticking to a transcription member for transferring a toner image from an image bearing member onto a transcription medium, is transferred onto the image bearing member, in accordance with a history of a toner image formed on the image bearing member, is provided by electrostatically transferring toner sticking to the transcription member onto the image bearing member.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus has a movable image carrier for carrying a toner image thereon; an image forming section for forming the toner image on the movable image carrier; a transfer section for electrostatically transferring the toner image on the movable image carrier to a transfer medium at a transfer position; an electrifying section for electrifying the toner image on the movable image carrier before the toner image reaches the transfer position; and a bias applying section for applying a bias to the electrifying section. This image forming apparatus controls the bias output of the bias applying section in accordance with information about surface roughness of the transfer medium.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes a non-transparent image forming device for forming a non-transparent toner image on a sheet; a transparent image forming device for forming a transparent toner image on a sheet; a partial heating device for heating an area, designated by a user, of the sheet having a toner image; and a control device for controlling the transparent image forming device such that the transparent toner is overlaid on an area where an amount, per unit area, of the non-transparent toner image formed in the area designated by the user is 0 or less than a predetermined amount.
摘要:
A transparent toner image forming device forms a transparent toner image on a sheet on which a color toner image is fixed. Image information that is designated by a user for forming the transparent toner image on part of the sheet is obtained. Application of the transparent toner is controlled such that, when the color toner is fixed in an amount not less than a predetermined first amount per unit area in a first region designated so as not to form the transparent toner image on the basis of image information, the transparent toner image is formed in a predetermined second amount per unit area in the first region. The transparent toner image is formed in an amount not less than the predetermined second amount per unit area in a second region designated so as to form the transparent toner image on the basis of the image information.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes a transparent image forming device for forming a transparent toner image on a sheet with a transparent toner in an amount per unit area; a manual selector for selecting an image area in which the transparent toner image is to be formed and for selecting the amount per unit area; a heating device for heating the transparent toner image formed on the sheet; a glossing device for processing the transparent toner image formed on the sheet so that glossiness is higher than that by the heating device; a mode selector for selecting a first mode in which the glossing device is not used and a second mode in which the glossing device is used; and a controlling device for controlling the amount per unit area of the transparent toner in the image area so as to be not less than a predetermined amount in the second mode.
