Developing device and image forming apparatus with developer including toner, carrier, and reverse polarity particles

摘要

An image forming apparatus provided with an image carrying member to carry an electrostatic latent image, a toner carrying member to develop the electrostatic latent image on the image carrying member with toner; a first developer carrying member to carry developer containing toner, carrier, reverse polarity particles and to supply toner to the toner carrying member; and a second developer carrying member to carry developer and to recover toner on the toner carrying member, wherein an ability to move the reverse polarity particles from the toner carrying member to the first developer carrying member is larger than an ability to move the reverse polarity particles from the second developer carrying member to the toner carrying member.
