摘要： An image forming apparatus includes an image bearer on which an image is formed; a transfer device to form a transfer portion between the image bearer and the transfer device; a voltage application device to apply a transfer voltage to the transfer device to transfer the image from the image bearer to a transfer target at the transfer portion; an abnormality sensor to detect an abnormal level of the transfer voltage; a temperature sensor to detect an ambient temperature; and a control circuit. The control circuit controls the voltage application device to continue applying the transfer voltage irrespective of whether the abnormality sensor has detected the abnormal level of the transfer voltage when a detection temperature of the temperature sensor is below a predetermined temperature.

摘要： A fixing apparatus includes a first heat generating member that generates heat upon receiving power from a commercial power source, an electrical condenser that stores charge when charged by the commercial power source, and a second heat generating member that generates heat upon receiving power from the electrical condenser. A fixing member is heated by the first and second heat generating members and fixes an image onto a recording medium. A control device is provided to restrict the power supplied from commercial power source to the first heat generating member when the temperature of the fixing member starts increasing. The electrical condenser starts supplying power to the second heat generating member before the control device terminates restriction of the power.

摘要： A fixing device includes a fixing unit, a cleaning unit, and a controller. The fixing unit includes a pair of nipping members and a heat source that heats at least one of the pair of nipping members. The cleaning unit includes a cleaning web wound on a supply core to be supplied from the supply core and taken up on a take-up core, and a pressing roller that is pressed against one of the pair of nipping members. The controller causes the take-up core to rotate in such a manner that, when a leading portion of the cleaning web extending up to 2% of an overall length of the cleaning web from a leading end of the cleaning web is fed, a length of the cleaning web to be fed in one feeding is 10-30% larger than when a subsequent portion of the cleaning web is fed.
