An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member for carrying a toner image; a recording material conveyer belt for electrostatically carrying and feeding a recording material; a roller, provided on a side of the recording material conveyer belt not carrying the recording material in a separation position where the recording material is separated from the recording material conveyer belt, for supporting the recording material conveyer belt; a transfer charger for electrostatically transferring the toner image from the image bearing member onto the recording material at a transfer position; a discharge, provided across the recording material conveyer belt from the roller at the separation position, for discharging the recording material upon separation thereof from the recording material conveyer belt; wherein the roller is electrically grounded through an element in which a voltage is generated when the current is supplied thereto.
摘要:
A repulsive magnetic field is formed in a section immediately upstream of a regulating blade, so that generation of a developing-agent stationary layer is suppressed or eliminated. Accordingly, a developing apparatus capable of stably maintaining the layer thickness of developing agent conveyed to a developing area for a long time is provided.

In a development device which develops an electrostatic image formed on a rotating photosensitive drum by applying a development bias to a development sleeve bearing a two-component developer, the development device includes a specific pattern determination portion which determines whether or not the electrostatic image includes a specific pattern. When the development device develops the specific pattern electrostatic image determined by the specific pattern determination portion, a potential difference between a development sleeve and a first non-image part of a predetermined range which is adjacent to the specific pattern electrostatic image and located on an upstream side in a photosensitive drum rotating direction is set smaller than a potential difference between the development sleeve and a second non-image part which is different from the first non-image part.

摘要:
In a device for controlling the amount of toner replenished to a developing device depending on the density of a reference image formed on a photoconductor, if the toner density of a developer in the developing device fluctuates extremely; there may occur toner scattering, formation of coarse or rough images, and carrier attachment. To overcome those problems, a photosensor is disposed to detect the toner density in the developing device, and when an output of the photosensor is outside of a predetermined range, a target value to be compared with the detected density of the reference image is modified.
