It is an object of this invention to provide an image processing apparatus which, when nonmagnetic mono-component development is performed, prevents the formation of white gaps in pattern boundaries between different colors and thereby prevents degradation in the image quality of the formed image. To achieve this object, in one embodiment of the invention, the density value VD(n) of the nth pixel on a certain line is applied to the A input terminal of a selector 207, and the density value VD(n-1) of the (n-1)th pixel is applied to the B input terminal of the selector 207. A subtracter 203 calculates the increase of VD(n) from VD(n-1). If a comparator 204 determines that the increase is a predetermined value C1 or less, a selection signal in the selector 207 is so set that the terminal B (the value of the immediately preceding pixel) is selected.

By altering a developing bias, a plurality of patch images are formed on a photoconductor, and a density of each patch image is measured, thereby judging whether or not a target density value is within a range of the plurality of measured density values. If the target density value is outside the range, a developing bias which realizes the target density is obtained by an interpolation, in accordance with two measured density values that are closest to the target density value among a plurality of measured densities, and with a developing bias of two patch images that are related to these two measured density values.

摘要:
The present invention provides an image forming apparatus with an image bearing member for bearing an image, and a transfer material bearing member rotatable for bearing a transfer material. The image on the image bearing member is transferred onto the transfer material born by the transfer material bearing member at a transfer position, and a voltage is applied to the transfer material bearing member during the transferring of the transfer material. When a distance between the transfer position and a separation position where the transfer material is separated from the transfer material bearing member along a peripheral surface of the transfer material bearing member in a rotational direction of the transfer material bearing member is L, a whole circumferential length of the transfer material bearing member is L1 and a maximum length of the transfer material usable in the image forming apparatus in the rotational direction of the transfer material bearing member is Hmax, a relation L.ltoreq.(L1-Hmax) is satisfied.
