摘要: A process cartridge for an image forming apparatus includes an image bearer; a developer bearer to supply a latent image on the image bearer with toner and develop the latent image, a cleaner to clean residual toner on the image bearer after a transfer process, and an elastically deformable remover to contact an end portion of the image bearer in an axial direction of the image bearer. The remover includes an inclined part extending in the axial direction of the image bearer from an upstream side to a downstream side in a direction of movement of the image bearer. The inclined part includes a contact portion to contact the image bearer. The contact portion of the inclined part forms a gradient in the axial direction.

摘要: An image forming apparatus includes a photosensitive member, a charging member, an exposing device, a developing device, a transfer member, a brush, a voltage applying portion, and a control portion controlling a surface potential of the photosensitive member at the brush contacting position. When a value of subtracting a value of the surface potential of the photosensitive member in the brush contacting position from a value of the brush voltage is defined as a contacting position potential difference, the control portion controls the surface potential of the photosensitive member in the brush contacting position so that the contacting position potential difference is changed from a first potential difference to a second potential difference in a predetermined direction which is either one of an increasing direction or a decreasing direction, and then the contacting position potential difference is changed from the second potential difference to a third potential difference in the predetermined direction.

摘要: A process unit is capable of avoiding backset of residual toner from the collecting unit to an image carrier even after collection of the residual toner on the image carrier at the collecting unit. A first collecting member is positioned downstream of a transfer unit and upstream of a charger in rotational direction of an image carrier. The first collecting member is configured to allow a developing agent remaining on the image carrier to pass therethrough but to collect a paper dust on the image carrier. A second collecting member is positioned downstream of the first collecting member and upstream of the charger, and configured to allow a developing agent remaining on the image carrier to pass therethrough but to collect a paper dust on the image carrier. The control device controls the first collecting member to be applied with a polarity the same as that of the charger.
