PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus for improving the image quality by canceling charge-up and potential variation by certainly equalizing the surface potential of an intermediate transfer body.SOLUTION: This image forming apparatus includes a high-resistivity body 50 having a surface resistivity of 10Ω/sq. or more under at least a condition where an intermediate transfer belt 5 is not irradiated with light, and a surface potential equalizing member 18 that equalizes the surface potential by applying bias so that the intermediate transfer belt 5, after secondary transfer, has a predetermined surface potential having one polarity on a moving route in which the intermediate transfer belt 5 moves from a secondary transfer section to a primary transfer section. |
