A transfer unit includes a first roller and a second roller as transfer rollers, a first bearing member, a second bearing member, a roller holder, a switching cam, a driving mechanism, a unit frame, and a secured cam. By rotating the roller holder, the first or second roller is arranged opposite an image carrying member. By rotating the switching cam, the first or second roller arranged opposite the image carrying member is selectively arranged either at a reference position or at a released position. The secured cam includes a positioning groove for performing positioning of the first or second roller arranged opposite the image carrying member and a holder positioning convexity that engages with a holder positioning concavity of the roller holder when the first roller is arranged opposite the image carrying member.

An image forming apparatus includes an image bearing member, a transfer member, an acquiring portion, an applying portion, and a controller. When a transfer voltage is subjected to constant-voltage control so that the transfer voltage applied to the transfer member by the applying portion is substantially constant, in a case that the transfer voltage, when a toner amount used for a toner image is a first toner amount, is a first voltage, the controller controls the applying portion so that the transfer voltage is a second voltage lower in absolute value than the first voltage in a case that the toner amount is a second toner amount greater than the first toner amount. The acquiring portion acquires toner amount information on the toner amount for each toner image transferred onto a single recording material.
