An image transfer system comprises an image bearer and an opposed member having a contact surface contacting a recording medium and opposed to a surface of the image bearer to form a transfer nip. A pressing device applies pressure to the transfer nip. An engaging and disengaging member engages and disengages the contact surface from the surface of the image bearer. A transfer bias device applies a transfer bias transferring an image formed on the image bearer onto the recording medium conveyed and pinched at the transfer nip. The image is composed of an adjustment pattern formed on a portion of the image bearer corresponding to an interval between recording mediums successively conveyed through the transfer nip. The engaging and disengaging device disengages the contact surface from the surface of the image bearer to form a gap therebetween when the adjustment pattern passes therethrough. |
