<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus capable of suitably reducing frictional force in the image forming apparatus capable of reducing the frictional force between a cleaning blade and an image carrier surface by supplying toner to the image carrier surface. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus can execute a toner supply process for supplying toner on a surface of a photoreceptor drum 1. Upon executing the toner supply process, the amount of the toner to be supplied from a developing unit 40 to the surface of the photoreceptor drum 1 is increased with increase of the use amount of the developing unit 40 on the basis of information recorded in a DT memory 40m. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
