    摘要: An image forming apparatus employs a liquid toner having nonvolatile high-viscosity silicon oil as a carrier fluid to form a toner image. The image forming apparatus includes a removing unit that removes a predetermined amount of carrier fluid contained in the toner image to thereby obtaining a carrier-fluid removed toner-image, a transfer unit that transfers the carrier-fluid removed toner-image onto an image forming medium; and a fixing unit that fixes the carrier-fluid removed toner-image on the image forming medium to the image forming medium.

    摘要: A medium supplying apparatus includes a separation mechanism that separates one medium at a time from a plurality of sheet-shaped media stacked in a loading rack and transports the medium, an irradiation unit that emits light onto a surface of the medium, and a light receiving unit that receives reflected light that is acquired by allowing the light emitted by the irradiation unit to be reflected from the surface and detects a reflected light intensity that is an intensity of the reflected light. The separating force of the separation mechanism that is used for separating a next medium is controlled based on the reflected light intensity detected by the light receiving unit.

    摘要: A friction-coefficient estimating device is configured to estimate friction coefficient of the surface of a medium in a form of a sheet by irradiating a light on the surface and by detecting specularly-reflected light component of a reflected light and a diffusely-reflected light intensity. The friction-coefficient estimating device comprises an irradiating unit including a first irradiating unit and a second irradiating unit, a specularly-reflected light receiving unit including a first specularly-reflected light receiving unit that receives a first specularly-reflected light component of a reflected light and detects a first specularly-reflected light intensity and a second specularly-reflected light receiving unit that receives a second specularly-reflected light component of a reflected light and detects a second specularly-reflected light intensity, and a diffusely-reflected light receiving unit that receives a diffusely-reflected light component of a reflected light and detects a diffusely-reflected light intensity, and a control unit that estimates a friction coefficient of the surface based on a first reflected-light intensity coefficient and a second reflected-light intensity coefficient.
