An image forming apparatus for conveying recording material. The image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member for bearing a toner image, a recording material convey belt for bearing and conveying a recording material, a roller for supporting the recording material convey belt and having an insulation layer, and an electricity removal device for removing electricity from the insulation layer. The toner image on the image bearing member is electrostatically transferred onto the recording material borne by the recording material convey belt, and the roller supports the recording material convey belt at a separation position where the recording material is separated from the recording material convey belt.

An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member; recording material carrying member for carrying a recording material; a transfer charging member for transferring a toner image formed on the image bearing member onto the recording material carried on the recording material carrying member; a controller for controlling an electric current supplied from the transfer charger to the recording material carrying member to be a predetermined level; and potential applying device for applying a potential of the same polarity as that of the toner image to a backside of the recording material carrying member prior to transfer operation of the transfer charger.
摘要:
The present invention provides an image forming apparatus comprising an image bearing member for bearing an image thereon, and a transfer device for transferring the image from the image bearing member to a recording material at a transfer station. Wherein a limit value of electric power supplied to the transfer device is changed between a case where an imaged portion of the image bearing member is positioned at the transfer station and a case where a non-imaged portion of the image bearing member is positioned at the transfer station.

An image display unit capable of displaying image data page-wise includes: a scanner portion; a display panel for displaying input image data in preview representation; an input condition determiner that compares the image data successively input through the scanner portion, as to input condition and determines whether there is any change in the image data input condition; and a display controller that, when the input condition determiner determines that the input image data has changed in the input condition, makes control such as to display the image data that was determined to have changed in the input condition and the image data input immediately before the image data in question, together on the display panel.
摘要:
Image data in a specific data format is stored in an external storage device, whereas application software for display, editing, and printing of the image data in the specific data format is not stored in the external storage device but transmitted to an e-mail address of a user or to an IP address of a user's computer. This provides a digital multifunction printer which is capable of storing image data in a removable external storage device and which can store image data in the external storage device in such a manner that the image data is stored with a data format specific to the digital multifunction printer while the image data can be processed by other device without dropping security for the stored image data.
