An image forming apparatus includes: a plurality of image bearing members, provided in parallel, each for forming a toner image; a first intermediary transfer member for forming a primary transfer portion between itself and each of the image bearing members, wherein the toner images formed on the image bearing members are to be primary-transferred onto the first intermediary transfer member; a second intermediary transfer member onto which the toner images are to be secondary-transferred from the first intermediary transfer member; and a transfer member for tertiary-transferring the toner images from the second intermediary transfer member onto a recording material. The first and second intermediary transfer members are integrally assembled into a transfer unit. The transfer unit is movable relative to a main assembly of the image forming apparatus in a direction in which the image bearing members are provided in parallel. |
