摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit, a decision unit, an output unit, a control unit, and a setting unit. The image forming unit forms an image on an image bearing member. The decision unit decides a first image forming condition of the image forming unit for forming the image at a width that is wider than a predetermined width. The output unit outputs a signal in accordance with the thickness of the image. The control unit causes the image forming unit to form a measurement image having a width that is narrower than or equal to the predetermined width. The setting unit sets a second image forming condition of the image forming unit so that the thickness of the image that is narrower than or equal to the predetermined width becomes thinner than or equal to the predetermined thickness.

An image forming apparatus includes a rotatable image bearing member and a toner image former for forming a toner image on the image bearing member, wherein the toner image former is capable of forming a toner image having a predetermined width measured in a direction of a rotational axis of the image bearing member at each of different positions, a transfer member, pressed against the image bearing member, for forming a transfer portion for transferring the toner image onto the transfer material from the image bearing member, a current detector for detecting a current flowing through the transfer member, a calculating portion for calculating a resistance difference in the transfer member with respect to the axial direction, on the basis of outputs of the current detector, for the toner images at the different positions when the toner images pass through the transfer portion, and an output portion for outputting an abnormality on the basis of an output of the calculating portion.
摘要:
An electric charge elimination needle for eliminating an electric charge of an intermediate transfer belt is disposed on the side more downstream than an opposite sheet metal which restricts an electric potential on the belt, in a direction of rotation of the intermediate transfer belt, thereby preventing a toner image on the intermediate transfer belt carried with tension by a plurality of tension rollers, from disorder when the intermediate transfer belt contacts and is detached from the tension roller.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus has a control unit that outputs the state of a belt member on the basis of the result of detection by a toner image detecting unit, of a toner image formed by a developing unit in a charged region of an image bearing member charged by applying a voltage to a transfer unit without charging the image bearing member using a charging unit.
