摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a plurality of image forming portions; a rotatable endless belt; a plurality of stretching rollers including an inner roller and a steering roller; an outer roller; a steering mechanism; a position changing mechanism; and a controller. In a case that a changing operation for changing a position of the inner roller is performed by the position changing mechanism during execution of a job for forming the toner images on a plurality of recording materials, the controller controls the steering mechanism so that a tilting operation for tilting the steering roller in a predetermined amount in interrelation with the changing operation is executed.

摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a plurality of image forming portions, a rotatable endless belt, a plurality of stretching rollers including an inner roller, an outer roller, a position changing mechanism, and a controller. During execution of a job for forming first toner images on a first recording material and second toner images on a second recording material subsequent to the first recording material, in a case that a changing operation for changing the position of the inner roller by the position changing mechanism after the first toner images are formed on the first recording material and before the second to toner images are transferred onto the second recording material is executed, the registration adjusting image is formed between the first toner images and the second toner images.
