1. An image forming apparatus, comprising:
an intermediate transfer belt formed into an endless shape; a belt-side transfer roller around which the intermediate transfer belt is stretched and which rotatably supports the intermediate transfer belt; a sensor for image stabilization which is disposed on an upstream side of the belt-side transfer roller for the intermediate transfer belt in a rotational direction of the intermediate transfer belt, and which detects a correction patch for image stabilizing processing, the correction patch being formed on the intermediate transfer belt; a sheet-side transfer roller that is disposed so as to face the belt-side transfer roller with the intermediate transfer belt being disposed therebetween, and is constituted so as to be able to be in contact with the intermediate transfer belt and to be spaced apart from the intermediate transfer belt; a toner receiving member that supplements toner of the correction patch falling from and spattering from the intermediate transfer belt; a toner receiver driving section that movably supports the toner receiving member; and a control section which causes the toner receiving member to be spaced apart from the sheet-side transfer roller and the intermediate transfer belt when the sheet-side transfer roller is brought into contact with the intermediate transfer belt, and which inserts the toner receiving member between the sheet-side transfer roller and the intermediate transfer belt when the sheet-side transfer roller is spaced apart from the intermediate transfer belt. |
