<p>In an image forming apparatus including an image carrier formed with a latent image, a developing device having a developing roller driven by a stepping motor and carrying a developer for developing the latent image, a rotary development apparatus for supporting the developing device centering on a rotating shaft to rotate to move to a developing position opposed to the image carrier and constituted to form an image by developing the latent image formed at the image carrier by the developing device at the developing position and transferring the developed developer image to a medium at a transferring position, the developing roller disposed at the developing position is driven to rotate by the stepping motor in a region of the latent image of the image carrier and stopped to rotate in a region in which the latent image is not formed of the image carrier to hold in the same phase by a current lower than a current in driving to rotate the developing roller to constitute a holding state.
