    摘要: An imaging apparatus such that residual toner on a transfer/conveyer mechanism such as a transfer belt and an intermediate transfer material is effectively removable. High-tension voltage opposite in magnetic polarity (plus) to the charged toner and a photosensitive drum is applied to a discharger 15 provided ahead of a drive member 12 for driving a transfer belt 6. The residual toner on the transfer belt 6 is removed by a brush 21, and the residual foreign substances come in contact with the photosensitive drum 1 and move onto the photosensitive drum 1 before a printing operation is started. The foreign substances are then removed by a photosensitive drum cleaner.

Two developing rollers rotating in directions opposite to each other are used, the moving direction of the first developing roller being opposite to the moving direction of the photosensitive body, and a circumferential speed ratio of a circumferential speed of the first developing roller to a circumferential speed of the photosensitive body is within a rage of 0.5 to 2.5; and the moving direction of the second developing roller is equal to the moving direction of the photosensitive body, and a circumferential speed ratio of a circumferential speed of the second developing roller to a circumferential speed of the photosensitive body is within a range of 1.5 to 3.5. A ratio of the sliding friction force between a magnetic brush for developing agent and the photosensitive body formed in the first developing roller and the sliding friction force between a magnetic brush for developing agent and the photosensitive body formed in the second developing roller is within a range of 0.9 to 2.1.

    摘要: A dielectric belt 24 is retracted from a photoreceptor 2 before printing, and electrophotographic processes including a process of forming an electrostatic latent image, a developing process and a cleaning process except for a transferring process are repeated. During the repetition of the electrophotographic processes, a surface electric potential in the background of the photoreceptor 2 is measured by the electric potential sensor 10. Alternatively, a quantity of toner adhering to the background of the photoreceptor 2 is measured by the toner sensor 37 and the toner electric charge sensor 36. When the measured values are lower than the reference values, it is judged that no fringe image is generated in the recording condition, and the printing operation is carried out.

A medium transporting path for transporting the image printing medium is formed between the first and the second image forming units. A first transferring unit, located facing the first image forming unit with the medium transporting path intervening therebetween, for applying no charge onto the rear side of the image printing medium, which does not face the first image forming unit. A second transferring unit being located facing the second image forming unit with the image printing medium with the medium transporting path intervening therebetween, in a state that the second transferring unit is apart from a first toner image formed on the image printing medium by the first image forming unit. In the both-side printing system thus constructed, the first and the second image forming units, and the first and the second transferring units cooperate to form first and second toner images on both sides of the image printing medium, the first and the second toner images being opposite in polarity.

    摘要: In a developing system containing a combination of forward-rotating and a backward-rotating developing rollers, a steady quantity of developing agent should be supplied to the developing rollers for high-quality printed images. This requirement can be satisfied by placing a doctor blade between an intersection point, where a line connecting the central axis of one of the developing rollers and its polarity reversing position meets a line connecting the central axis of the other of the developing rollers and its polarity reversing position, and the developing roller pair. Further, the doctor blade should be located on the upstream side of the developing agent flow relative to the central axes of the backward-rotating developing roller and the forward rotating developing roller with its rightmost side (upstream side) in parallel with the line connecting the central axes of the developing rollers, and the doctor gap (on the side of the developing roller to which the developing agent is supplied) should be greater than a minimum gap (doctor gap) between one end of the doctor blade and the surface of the developing roller to which the developing agent is first supplied.
