IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

An image forming apparatus includes at least one imaging device including at least a photoconductor, a charging device, an exposure device, a developing device, and a transfer device; a detector that detects that the photoconductor of the imaging device has reached the end of a life of the photoconductor; and a controller that controls the imaging device under an imaging condition including a charge condition, an exposure condition, a development condition, and a transfer condition. After the controller acquires detection information of the detector, the controller controls the imaging device by changing the imaging condition to a condition that decreases an image quality.
