    摘要: A developing device comprises a feeding and conveying path; a stirring and conveying path; and a recovering and conveying path, and capable of extending the service life of a developer and of forming an image with stable image density. In the developing device, the central position of a stirring rotary shaft that is a rotary shaft of a stirring screw and the central position of a feeding rotary shaft that is a rotary shaft of a feed screw are disposed at almost the same height. A recovering rotary shaft that is a rotary shaft of a recovering screw is so disposed that the central position thereof is higher than the central positions of the stirring rotary shaft and feeding rotary shaft, and lower than a rotation central position of the developing rotary shaft that is a rotary shaft of a developing roller.

    摘要: A developing unit for an image forming apparatus including an agent carrying member, a supply compartment, a supply screw, a recovery compartment, a recovery screw, an agitation compartment, and an agitation screw. The agent carrying member carries and supplies developing agent to an image carrying member. The supply screw in the supply compartment supplies the developing agent to the agent carrying member. The recovery screw in the recovery compartment, provided under the agent carrying member, transports the developing agent dropped from the agent carrying member. The agitation screw in the agitation compartment receives the developing agent from the supply compartment and recovery compartment, and transports the developing agent to the supply compartment. The recovery compartment, supply compartment, and agitation compartment are provided side-by-side in a horizontal direction. A magnetic flux density in a given area of the agent carrying member is set to 10 mT or less.

    摘要: An image forming method and apparatus includes a first image carrying member, a first transfix unit, a second image carrying member, and a second transfix unit. The first image carrying member carries a first toner image thereon. The first transfix unit receives the first toner image from the first image carrying member and transfers and fixes the first toner image onto a first face of a recording sheet with a heat effect. The second image carrying member carries a second toner image thereon. The second transfix unit receives the second toner image from the second image carrying member and transfers and fixes the second toner image onto a second face of the recording sheet with a heat effect.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes an image carrier; an exposing unit that exposes the image carrier to light to form an electrostatic latent image on the image carrier; a developing unit that has at least a toner, and develops the electrostatic latent image formed on the image carrier as a toner image; a transfer unit that transfers the toner image onto a recording medium; a fixing unit that fixes the toner image transferred on the recording medium; an exposure-energy modulating unit that modulates exposure energy of the exposing unit; and a development-time detecting unit that detects operation time of the developing unit. The exposure-energy modulating unit modulates the exposure energy based on a result of detection by the development-time detecting unit.
