PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus with which a good-quality image can be obtained and transfer of high durability is made possible by improving the transfer efficiency of a primary transfer and a secondary transfer even if a linear speed of an intermediate transfer body due to a higher speed of image formation is increased. SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus transfers the toner images formed on photoreceptors 1, 1Y, 1M, 1C, 1K of an image forming section to an intermediate transfer body 7 by primary transfer means 5Y, 5M, 5C, 5K and transfers the toner images to a transfer material P, in which the primary transfer electrodes 5YA, 5MA, 5CA, 5KA of the primary transfer means are formed by a conductive foamable member 52 coming into surface-to-surface contact with the inner side of the intermediate transfer body 7 in the primary transfer position where the photoreceptors 1Y, 1M, 1C, 1KA and the intermediate transfer body 7 oppose.
