摘要:
A repulsive magnetic field is formed in a section immediately upstream of a regulating blade, so that generation of a developing-agent stationary layer is suppressed or eliminated. Accordingly, a developing apparatus capable of stably maintaining the layer thickness of developing agent conveyed to a developing area for a long time is provided.

In a development device which develops an electrostatic image formed on a rotating photosensitive drum by applying a development bias to a development sleeve bearing a two-component developer, the development device includes a specific pattern determination portion which determines whether or not the electrostatic image includes a specific pattern. When the development device develops the specific pattern electrostatic image determined by the specific pattern determination portion, a potential difference between a development sleeve and a first non-image part of a predetermined range which is adjacent to the specific pattern electrostatic image and located on an upstream side in a photosensitive drum rotating direction is set smaller than a potential difference between the development sleeve and a second non-image part which is different from the first non-image part.

An image forming apparatus includes a plurality of development units each using a developer including a toner and a carrier, a density detection unit configured to perform a density detection operation for detecting a density of a detection toner image formed by each of the plurality of development units, and a replenishment unit configured to perform a toner replenishment operation based on a result of the detection by the density detection unit. In the image forming apparatus, at least two of the plurality of development units use respective toners having different color depths in the same hue, and a frequency of the density detection operation using the development unit using a lighter color toner is higher than a frequency of the density detection operation using the development unit using a darker color toner.
