<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus capable of outputting prints so that printed paper is easily re-used by peeling a toner from the paper. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus includes: an image pattern exposure section for forming an electrostatic latent image corresponding to an image pattern onto a first photoreceptor; a color toner developing section for forming a print image by developing the formed electrostatic latent image with a color toner; a strippable layer pattern exposure section for forming an electrostatic latent image corresponding to a strippable layer pattern, which is determined based on the image pattern, onto a second photoreceptor; a strippable toner developing section for forming a strippable pattern layer by developing the formed electrostatic latent image with strippable toner; a paper feed section for feeding paper; a transfer section for transferring the print image and the strippable pattern layer one on the other on the paper so that the strippable pattern layer is situated between the print image and the paper; and a fixing section capable of fixing the print image and the strippable pattern layer transferred on the paper. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
