1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
a photoconductor drum configured to carry a toner image while rotating; and a developing portion including a developing roller and a collecting roller, wherein the photoconductor drum includes:
a drum base body having a cylindrical outer circumferential surface; anda drum coating layer formed on the outer circumferential surface of the drum base body and including a charge transport material, the drum coating layer has been formed by a dipping method in which the drum base body is dipped in a first liquid in a state where the drum base body is in a vertical attitude such that a first end of the drum base body faces down and a second end of the drum base body faces up, the developing roller supplies charged toner to the photoconductor drum, the collecting roller is rotatably supported, in a state of not contacting the photoconductor drum, at a position more on a downstream side in a rotation direction of the photoconductor drum than the developing roller, a bias being applied to the collecting roller, a polarity of a potential difference of the bias to the photoconductor drum being same as a charging polarity of the toner, the collecting roller includes:
a collecting roller base body having a cylindrical outer circumferential surface; anda collecting roller coating layer formed on the outer circumferential surface of the collecting roller base body, the collecting roller coating layer has been formed by the dipping method in which the collecting roller base body is dipped in a second liquid in a state where the collecting roller base body is in a vertical attitude such that a first end of the collecting roller base body faces down and a second end of the collecting roller base body faces up, and the collecting roller is supported in a state where the collecting roller and the photoconductor drum are opposed to each other and the first end of the collecting roller base body and the second end of the drum base body face a same direction. |
