<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a developing device with a configuration capable of inexpensively preventing a toner from fixing, and suppressing the toner from deteriorating. <P>SOLUTION: The developing device includes a developer carrier 31 provided in a rotatable manner, and a layer-thickness control member 33 that makes a layer-thickness of a developer carried on the developer carrier 31 uniform. The developer used has an accelerated agglomeration degree of ≤40%. The layer-thickness control member 33 is formed with a blade, and the rolling direction of the blade is set to form an angle θ ranging from 5° to 80° with respect to the rotating direction of the developer carrier 31. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
