摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes a voltage applying unit that applies a bias voltage for enabling a transfer unit to transfer a developer layer to a transfer medium, the developer layer being retained by an image carrier in accordance with image information; a measuring unit that measures a surface potential of the developer layer; and a setting unit that sets a value of the bias voltage to be applied by the voltage applying unit in accordance with the surface potential measured by the measuring unit, a combined electrostatic capacitance of a surface layer of the image carrier and the developer layer, and an electrostatic capacitance specific to the transfer medium.
摘要:
A liquid supply device includes a rotating supply member that holds a liquid developer in concave portions formed on an outer peripheral surface, and supplies the liquid developer to a target supply member, a regulating member that regulates a liquid developer holding amount of the outer peripheral surface of the rotating supply member by contacting with the outer peripheral surface of the rotating supply member, and a movement unit that moves the regulating member to a retract position which is separated from the outer peripheral surface of the rotating supply member.
摘要:
A image display medium driving device includes a voltage application unit that applies a voltage between a pair of substrates, at least one of which is transparent, of an image display medium including plural types of particles which are sealed between the pair of substrates, are attached to the substrates, and start to be separated from the substrates at different times when a predetermined voltage is applied and a control unit that controls the voltage application unit such that a time when the voltage is applied between the pair of substrates varies depending on image information.
摘要:
Provided is an image forming apparatus including a first holding member that is rotated and holds a liquid developer including a volatile carrier liquid, a first cleaning member that is able to come into contact with or separated from the first holding member and cleans a surface of the first holding member by being in contact with the first holding member, a supplying device that supplies a volatile washing liquid to the first holding member at an upstream side of the first cleaning member in a rotation direction of the first holding member, and a switching mechanism that switches a first state in which the first cleaning member is in contact with the first holding member that is rotated to a second state in which the first cleaning member is separated from the first holding member that is rotated to apply the washing liquid to the first holding member.
