Problems solved by technology

That is, the potential difference ΔV varies due to the difference in the amount of toner charge, and the amount of scattered toner varies due to the difference in the potential difference ΔV. Therefore, when the recovery force of the recovery roller is kept constant, there is a possibility that the toner cannot be suppressed. The problem of spraying

Abstract

The present invention provides an image forming apparatus having a developing device of a falling development method, in which, compared with the closest position of a two-component developer carrier and a toner carrier, the A toner recovery roller for recovering scattered toner in the vicinity of the toner carrier and the two-component developer carrier is arranged on the downstream side in the rotational direction of the two-component developer carrier, and is arranged on the between a two-component developer carrier and a wall of the casing, and the image forming apparatus includes: a bias unit that applies a bias voltage for recovering scattered toner to the toner recovery roller; and an image density detection unit for transferring the toner image developed on the surface of the latent electrostatic image bearing member or the toner image developed on the surface of the latent electrostatic image bearing member The density of the toner image on the body is detected to control the bias voltage.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus such as an electrophotographic copier, printer, facsimile machine, and their complex machines, and more particularly to a magnetic brush formed using a two-component developer that charges a non-magnetic toner with a magnetic carrier, An image forming apparatus that forms a thin layer of toner on a developing roller with a magnetic brush, and makes the toner in the thin layer of toner leap toward an electrostatic latent image, thereby developing the latent image. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, in an electrophotographic image forming apparatus, a one-component development method and a two-component development method are known as a development method using a dry toner. [0003] In the one-component development method, since the carrier is not contained, the electrostatic latent image on the photoreceptor is not disturbed by the magnetic brush formed by the carrier and the toner, ...
