A control apparatus specifies a response time required for a pre-change transmittance specified by image data of an image to be displayed on the liquid crystal display panel to become a post-change transmittance specified by image data of a subsequent image, subsequent to the image, to be displayed on the liquid crystal display panel, for each pixel of the liquid crystal display panel, based on the pre-change transmittance and on the post-change transmittance; derives a representative response time defined as a response time of an image in a frame, based on the response time specified for each of the pixels; and sets an unlit time period of the backlight, between display of the image and the subsequent image, according to the representative response time.

An image forming apparatus includes a power source to output a voltage having an alternating waveform to transfer a toner image from an image bearing member to a recording medium. A time-averaged value (Vave) of the voltage has a polarity in a transfer direction, in which the toner image is transferred from the image bearing member to the recording medium, and an absolute value of the time-averaged value is greater than a midpoint value (Voff) of the voltage intermediate between a maximum value and a minimum value of the voltage. As a roughness of the recording medium increases, a duty ratio (Duty) expressed by A/(A+B) is reduced, where A is an area of the waveform of the voltage in a return direction opposite the transfer direction relative to the midpoint value in one cycle and B is an area in the transfer direction relative to the midpoint value.

In at least one embodiment, a TFT includes: a first capacitor formed of a first capacitor electrode connected to a source electrode and a second capacitor electrode; a second capacitor formed of a third capacitor electrode and a fourth capacitor electrode; a first lead-out line; a second lead-out line connected to a gate electrode; a third lead-out line; a fourth lead-out line; a first interconnection; and a second interconnection. This realizes a TFT which can be easily saved from being a defective product even if leakage occurs in a capacitor connected to a TFT body section.

Described herein is a transfer device that transfers a visualized image formed on an image carrier onto a recording medium. The transfer device includes an image carrier that carries a toner image, a contacting member that contacts the image carrier via a recording medium and a power source that outputs a transfer bias to transfer the toner image from the image carrier onto the recording medium at a transfer nip formed between the image carrier and the contacting member. The transfer bias has a direct current component and an alternating current (AC) component superimposed on the direct current component. The transfer device also includes a controller that controls the power source such that the controller controls a level of the direct current component output from the power source by a constant current control.

An image forming apparatus includes a transfer device to transfer a toner image formed on an image bearing member onto a recording medium, a sheet separation device to separate the recording medium from the image bearing member, a sheet separation bias application device to apply to the sheet separation device a sheet separation bias in which an alternating current (AC) component is superimposed on a direct current (DC) component, and a transfer bias application device to selectively apply to the transfer device one of a DC transfer bias having a DC component and a superimposed transfer bias in which an AC component is superimposed on a DC component. Upon application of the superimposed transfer bias to the transfer device, the sheet separation bias applied to the sheet separation device is changed from the sheet separation bias applied upon application of the DC transfer bias to the transfer device.
