摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit detachably attached to an image forming apparatus. The image forming unit includes a first unit that accommodates a first process device, and a second unit that is detachable from the first unit and accommodates a second process device with a longer life than the first process device.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus includes a belt, plural photosensitive drums that face the belt, plural developing devices that develop plural latent images formed on the plural photosensitive drums using a developing agent, where the developing devices are disposed around the respective photosensitive drums, and plural image forming devices, where each one of the plural image forming devices includes one of the plural photosensitive drums and one of the plural developing devices, and the photosensitive drum of an adjacent one of the plural image forming devices is disposed vertically within a horizontal width of the developing device of one of the plural image forming devices.

摘要:
A transfer sheet detect sensor for detecting the presence or absence of a transfer sheet is disposed between a point of contact where a developing device for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on an image carrier to form a toner image is contacted with a transfer roller in a transfer portion and a point of tucking provided just upstream of the contact point where the transfer sheet is tucked into the image carrier just upstream of the contact point, the transfer roller is disposed such that it can be contacted with and retreated (separated) from the image carrier, and a cleaning roller is provided such that it can be contacted with the transfer roller while the transfer roller is retreated to its separated position, whereby a given cleaning voltage is applied to the transfer roller when the transfer roller is cleaned by the cleaning roller.
