A control section (101) includes a first power control section (81) (a first power control mode) and a second power control section (82) (a second power control mode). The first power control section (81) is for controlling an setting value of electric power to be supplied to a heater lamp (64) based on the temperature of a heating roller (61). The second power control section (82) is for controlling the setting value of electric power to be supplied to the heater lamp (64) in order to forced-drive the heater lamp (64) by an electric power that is higher than the setting value of electric power. Switching control means (84) performs switching between the first power control mode and the second power control mode depending on a status of operation of each of components forming an image forming apparatus (100).

The present invention is made to provide a pretransfer charging device, which allows (i) reduction of generation of discharge products such as ozone and nitroxide, (ii) excellent uniform charging, (iii) continuous stable charging for a long period of time, and (iv) restraint of distortion of a toner image. The pretransfer charging device includes (i) ion generation needles each provided face to face with an image carrier such as a photoconductor drum or an intermediating transfer belt, and (ii) a high-voltage power supply for applying a negative voltage to each of the ion generation needles. The voltage to be applied from the high-voltage power supply is not less than an ion production threshold voltage but is less than a corona discharge threshold voltage. With this, no corona discharge occurs but negative ions can be generated. This makes it possible to solve various problems caused due to the corona discharge.

A projection-type display apparatus includes an illumination optical system (1) including a light source, a reflection-type light valve (2) having an image forming area on a to-be-illuminated surface illuminated by the illumination optical system (1), and a projection optical system (3) that projects an image formed on the image forming area of the reflection-type light valve (2). The projection optical system (1) is shiftable in a direction approximately perpendicular to a projection optical axis. An F-number of the projection optical system (3) is smaller than an F-number of the illumination optical system (1). Between the projection optical system (3) and the reflection-type light valve (2), an opening defining member (12) that defines an incident side opening of the projection optical system (3) is provided, which is not moved by the shifting of the projection optical system (3).
摘要:
A fixer (heater) includes a heat roller and a pressure roller pressing each other. The fixer heats a heated material by passing the heated material through a press region where the heat roller and the pressure roller meet. The fixer further includes an external heat roller heating the pressure roller from outside the pressure roller. A transit time taken for any given point on the heated material to pass through the press region is less than or equal to 2.3×10−2 sec. The surface temperature, T1 (° C.), of the heat roller and the surface temperature, T2 (° C.), of the pressure roller satisfy T1-T2≦100 (° C.), and preferably satisfy T1-T2≦70 (° C.). The load on the heat roller is reduced, and so is the power consumption.
摘要:
A fixing device cleaning device, provided on a fixing device having a heating member and a pressing member pressed against the heating member at a predetermined contact pressure, comprises a cleaning member, formed in a scraper shape, which is pressed against the heating member, or the pressing member, so as to remove developer from a surface of the heating member or the pressing member. The cleaning member includes one or more opening sections in a vicinity of a contact point with respect to a cleaning target surface of the heating member or the pressing member.
摘要:
A fixing device comprising a fix member for touching an unfixed image on a recording medium, and a press member for being pressed against the fixing member, so as to fix the unfixed image on the recording medium by transporting the recording medium through a nip between the fix member and the press member, wherein (100·K1)≦(K2)≦(320·K1) where K1 is a heat transmission coefficient of the press member and K2 is a heat transmission coefficient of the fix member. With this arrangement, it is possible to transmit heat to toner and the recording medium in a short time. Thus, it is possible to attain high-speed printing.
摘要:
An information recording and reproducing apparatus with a ring buffer, in which user can know a state of the ring buffer in a real-time manner and a monitoring method of the ring buffer. A ring buffer monitor image signal is generated which indicates an image showing a relative positional relation of a current recording position and a current reproducing position in the ring buffer.
