Abstract: An image forming apparatus including a binder pattern transfer section which transfers, at a first point, a binder pattern to a transfer belt moving in a predetermined direction, and a color pattern transfer section which transfers a color pattern to the transfer belt at predetermined timing, at a second point located on a lower flow side in a movement direction of the transfer belt than the first point, in which the color pattern transfer section applies electric charge to the binder pattern transferred by the binder pattern transfer section when the binder pattern passes through the second point along with a movement of the transfer belt, instead of transferring the color pattern to the transfer belt.
