<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming device which is inexpensive, a small and simple structure, reduces image irregularities, and ensures stable transferability. SOLUTION: A pre-transfer guide 40, with which a transfer material is brought into contact further upstream than a transfer position T in a transfer- material carrying direction, is made of a conductive material. A pre-fixing guide plate 63, with which the recording sheet P is brought into contact further downstream than the transfer position T in the carrying direction before the front end of the recording sheet P in the carrying direction passes through a fixing position F and before its rear end in the carrying direction moves apart from the pre-transfer guide 40, is also made of a conductive material. Further, a casing 64 is also made of a conductive material. A casing 65 and the pre-transfer guide plate 40 are conductively connected via leakage-current feedback lines 71 and 72, and a resistance 81 A is interposed between the leakage-current confluence point 73 of the leakage-current feedback lines 71 and 72 and the ground.</p> |
