<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus capable of preventing recording material from being wound round an intermediate transfer body side by improving the low-temperature and low-humidity environment of a secondary transfer part with simple constitution. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus has: a secondary transfer means for secondarily transferring a toner image to the recording material from an intermediate transfer body by applying secondary transfer bias between a secondary transfer roller and the intermediate transfer body by a constant-current control means; a destaticizing member for eliminating the charge of the recording material to which the toner image has been transferred by the secondary transfer means; and a destaticizing voltage applying means for applying the destaticizing bias to the destaticizing member. The apparatus is equipped with a supply means for supplying exhaust air from a fixing device to a secondary transfer part for predetermined time under the low-temperature and low-humidity environment. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
