摘要:
In accordance with an embodiment, an image forming apparatus comprises a humidity sensor, a developing device, a supply device, an acquisition section, and a controller. The supply device supplies the developing device with the developer based on toner density sensor detecting the toner density and a detection result of the toner density sensor among the developer in the developing device. Based on the detection result of the humidity sensor and a time from the completion of a processing relating to image formation to the start of a processing relating to next image formation, the acquisition section acquires a charge level of the developer in the developing device. Based on a first charge level acquired by the acquisition section at a first time and a second charge level acquired by the acquisition section at a second time after the first time, the controller controls to discharge the toner.

According to one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes a printer and a controller. The printer performs image formation on a sheet at a first speed relating to a speed of image formation or at a second speed slower than the first speed. The controller acquires information on deterioration of developer contained in an own apparatus, and controls the printer to perform image formation at the first speed when the information does not satisfy a predetermined condition indicating that the developer is deteriorated and to perform image formation at the second speed when the information satisfies the predetermined condition.

An image forming apparatus includes a forming unit, a storage unit, a correction unit, a measurement unit, and a changing unit. The forming unit forms an image. The storage unit stores correction data for correcting density irregularity in each of a plurality of regions obtained through division in a main scanning direction of the image formed by the forming unit. The correction unit corrects a density of the image formed by the forming unit for each of the plurality of regions based on the correction data stored in the storage unit. The measurement unit measures an image formation density by the forming unit in association with the correction by the correction unit. The changing unit changes the image formation density by the forming unit with a uniform change amount in the plurality of regions so that the image formation density measured by the measurement unit approaches a predetermined target density.

An image forming apparatus includes an operation panel including a display, a belt through which an image formed thereon is transferred to a sheet, a head configured to form an image on the belt, and a controller configured to control the head to form an image on the belt according to operation settings. The controller is configured to, upon receipt of an instruction to execute a first job, determine whether the job includes forming an image, upon determining that the first job includes forming an image, determine whether a first condition for executing an adjustment operation to adjust the settings is satisfied, upon determining that the first condition is satisfied, control the display to display a screen through which execution of the adjustment operation and a timing thereof can be selected, and execute the first job and/or the adjustment operation based on a selection made through the screen.

A fixer includes a fixing belt configured to move around a center, a heating unit configured to induction-heat the fixing belt, a pressing member that presses an outer surface of the fixing belt, a resilient member disposed opposite to the pressing member across the fixing belt, and a heat generating member that is capable of being induction-heated and disposed along the inner surface of the fixing belt between a first position and a second position that is downstream with respect to the first position in a moving direction of the fixing belt. An upstream end portion of the resilient member in the moving direction is in contact with a third position of the fixing belt, and an angle formed with respect to the center by the second and third positions is equal to or smaller than 60°.
