An image forming apparatus configured to control the timing of the next cleaning such that, if there is a plurality of image forming jobs and a cumulative number of image-formed recording media is equal to or greater than a set number of sheets for cleaning, an image forming apparatus executes cleaning processing when the plurality of image forming jobs is completed.

An apparatus includes a forming unit, a cleaning mechanism that cleans a transparent member of a scanning device of the forming unit, a counter that counts a number of image-formed sheets, which are sheets of a recording medium on which images have been formed by the forming unit, the counter performing counting with a first count value in a case where the forming unit performs image formation in a first mode and performing counting with a second count value larger than the first count value in a case where the forming unit performs image formation in a second mode higher in image forming speed than the first mode, and a control unit that controls the cleaning mechanism to clean the transparent member in response to the number of image-formed sheets counted by the counter reaching a predetermined number of sheets.

An image forming apparatus includes an image carrying member, a charging device, an exposure device, a developing device, and a control section. The developing device includes a development container for containing a non-magnetic one-component developer composed only of a toner, a developer carrying member having an outer circumferential surface on which a toner layer is formed, and a regulation blade that regulates a thickness of the toner layer. The control section executes speed reduction control to reduce a rotation speed of the developer carrying member at a time of warming-up before image formation to a first speed lower than a reference speed at a time of the image formation. In the speed reduction control, the control section raises the rotation speed of the developer carrying member at a first acceleration rate until the first speed is reached from a state where rotation of the developer carrying member is stopped.

An image forming apparatus includes an image carrying member, a charging device, an exposure device, a developing device, a development voltage power supply, and a control section. The developing device includes a development container for containing a non-magnetic one-component developer composed only of a toner, a developer carrying member having an outer circumferential surface on which a toner layer is formed, and a toner supply member that supplies the toner to the developer carrying member. The control section performs control so that, as a cumulative drive time of the developing device increases, a supply voltage Vsdc becomes larger than a reference supply voltage and a development voltage Vdc becomes smaller than a reference development voltage, thus executing control to vary the development voltage Vdc and the supply voltage Vsdc so as to increase a potential difference VsdcVdc between the supply voltage Vsdc and the development voltage Vdc.
