    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a transferor, a first detector to detect an image formed on the transferor, a second detector to detect an image formed on a recording medium, and circuitry. The circuitry is configured to generate first gradation correction data based on a detection result obtained by the first detector, generate second gradation correction data based on a detection result obtained by the second detector, and control gradation correction for the image formed on the recording medium using the first and second gradation correction data. Further, the circuitry is configured to prioritize one of the first and second gradation correction data based on at least one of a characteristic of the recording medium and a characteristic of the image in the gradation correction during consecutive printing in which images are consecutively formed on recording media.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus has a system speed of from 400 to 2,000 mm/sec and includes an endless intermediate transfer belt to transfer a sheet-shaped medium bearing an image formed of a toner. The intermediate transfer belt includes a first layer including at least a substrate; a second layer; and an electric resistance controlling material and has a surface resistivity of from 1×108 to 1×1013 Ω/□, a volume resistivity of from 1×106 to 1×1012 Ω·cm, and a surface roughness not greater than 50 μm. The toner includes a mother particle which is surface-treated with a fluidizer, comprising a charge controlling agent and at least two external additives which are inorganic particulate materials and particulate polymers formed of polymeric particulate materials or thermosetting resins adhering to the surface of the mother particle.

    摘要: A toner container removably installed into an image forming apparatus body. The toner container includes a pouch member that contains a new toner therein and can be turned inside out, and a cover member that covers an outside of the pouch member and includes an inlet through which a waste toner flows in, the inlet being formed opposite to a side of the cover member from which the new toner contained in the pouch member is discharged. After the new toner contained in the pouch member is discharged, the pouch member is turned inside out, and the waste toner flows from the inlet into the pouch member.
