The control unit comprises a switching unit configured to switch between a home screen for displaying icons accommodated in a first tab selected via the touch panel among the plurality of tabs and a setting screen for moving a predetermined icon accommodated in the first tab to a second tab by a drag-and-drop operation, and a display control unit configured in such a way that when the predetermined icon is dragged onto a heading part of the second tab on the setting screen, in a case that there is no space for inserting the predetermined icon in the second tab, a display indicating that a drop operation is not possible is performed on the heading part of the second tab, and in a case that there is a space for inserting the predetermined icon in the second tab, a display indicating that a drop operation is possible is performed on the heading part of the second tab.

An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member configured to bear a toner image formed using a liquid developer containing toner particles and a carrier liquid, a transfer member, an input portion into which information on a kind of a recording material is inputted, an adjusting device configured to adjust an amount of the carrier liquid of the toner image, and an executing portion configured to execute an operation of the adjusting device depending on the information when the toner image is in the adjusting position. The executing position executes either of a plurality of operations including a first operation in which the amount of the carrier liquid of the toner image is increased, a second operation in which the amount of the carrier liquid is decreased, and a third operation in which the amount of the carrier liquid is not adjusted.

An image forming apparatus includes an image bearer, an image forming device to form an image on the image bearer, a transfer device to transfer the image formed on the image bearer onto a sheet, a storage to store the sheet, a sheet feeder to convey the sheet one by one to the transfer device, and a slip amount prediction controller. The slip amount prediction controller calculates a predicted slip amount between the sheet feeder and the sheet before forming the image and, subsequently calculates an interval between images based on the predicted slip amount. The slip amount prediction controller controls the image forming device based on the calculated interval between images to form the image on the image bearer.

According to an embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes: a motor that drives a fixing device; and a controller. The motor outputs a signal corresponding to a driving current value of the motor. The controller performs a first operation where a magnitude value of the signal has fallen out of a first range while driving the motor in a first operation mode. The controller performs a second operation where the magnitude value of the signal has fallen out of a second range while driving the motor in a second operation mode.

A quinone derivative is represented by general formula (1), (2), or (3). In general formulae (1), (2), and (3), R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.11, R.sup.12, R.sup.13, R.sup.14, R.sup.21, R.sup.22, R.sup.23, and R.sup.24 each represent, independently of one another, a hydrogen atom, a cyano group, a halogen atom, an optionally substituted alkyl group having a carbon number of 1-6, or an optionally substituted alkoxy group having a carbon number of 1-6. R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.15, R.sup.16, R.sup.25, and R.sup.26 each represent, independently of one another, an optionally substituted alkyl group having a carbon number of 1-6, an optionally substituted alkoxy group having a carbon number of 1-6, an optionally substituted aryl group having a carbon number of 6-14, an optionally substituted aralkyl group having a carbon number of 7-12, or an optionally substituted cycloalkyl group having a carbon number of 3-10.

A sheet conveying device includes a sheet detection unit and a position adjusting mechanism. The position adjusting mechanism is disposed on a downstream side of the sheet detection unit in a sheet conveying direction in the sheet conveying path, includes an adjusting roller pair, and performs skew correction and positional displacement correction of a sheet, while conveying the sheet. The sheet conveying path includes a first conveying roller pair disposed on an upstream side of the position adjusting mechanism in the sheet conveying direction, and a curved part disposed between the adjusting roller pair and the first conveying roller pair, which curves in an S shape so as to be convex in a front and back side direction of the sheet alternately at different positions in the sheet conveying direction. The adjusting roller pair nips and conveys the sheet together with the first conveying roller pair.

A web transport system for transporting a web of media along a web transport path in an in-track direction, including a liquid application system for applying a liquid to at least one surface of the web of media. An air skive is positioned along the web transport path downstream of the liquid application system, wherein the air skive directs one or more streams of air onto the web of media thereby removing at least some of the liquid that is being carried along with the web of media. A vapor source adds a vapor into the one or more streams of air provided by the air skive before the one or more streams of air are directed onto the web of media.

A drive transmission device includes an intermediate gear, a housing portion, and a support portion. The intermediate gear meshes with a first gear and a second gear to transmit a rotational driving force from the first gear to the second gear. The housing portion is formed from resin and includes a pair of cover portions, covering both sides of a gear train including the intermediate gear, to house the gear train. The support portion is formed from metal and supports the rotation shaft of the intermediate gear at a position outside the housing portion.

A sheet discharge device includes: at least one processor; a conveyance unit configured to convey a sheet along a conveyance path; a discharge unit to which the sheet is discharged; a storage unit that is provided in a middle of the conveyance path and temporarily stores the sheet; an alignment unit provided in the discharge unit and configured to align the sheet in a width direction intersecting a convey direction of the sheet, in which the processor is configured to change a method of aligning the sheets by the alignment unit between a case where storage control for storing the sheets in the storage unit is performed and a case where the storage control is not performed.

A relationship 150≦Rs (Ω)/Rm (Ω)≦4000 is established in an environment of a temperature of 15° C. and a humidity of 10% in a case where a surface resistance of a transfer roller is Rs (Ω) when a current is fed between a pair of electrodes facing each other in an axial direction of the transfer roller and arranged on a surface of the transfer roller with an interval of 5 mm therebetween, the electrodes having a width of 20 mm in a circumferential direction of the transfer roller in a state of being arranged on the transfer roller, and in a case where a combined resistance of a first layer and a second layer is Rm (Ω) when the current is fed from a core portion to an outer peripheral surface of the second layer.
