<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus without impairing the durability of a photoreceptor even if the same image including vertical ruled lines is repeatedly printed. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus suppresses the uneven wear of the photoreceptor and the degradation of a chargeability caused by repetitious formation of a vertical ruled-line image on the same part of the photoreceptor. The image forming apparatus has: a means for detecting the position where a transfer material is conveyed; and a means for forming an electrostatic latent image on the photoreceptor on the basis of the detected position where the transfer material is conveyed. The position where the transfer material is conveyed is shifted at predetermined intervals. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
