SOLUTION: The cleaning device which transfers a toner image electrostatically formed on an image carrier surface to a transfer material and removes residual toner left on the image carrier at this time performs both blade cleaning and fur brush cleaning, and is configured to supply the image carrier surface with at least two kinds of materials having lubricity and abrasiveness for the image carrier surface via a fur brush. Two kinds of the materials are solidified and the solidified material are supplied to the fur brush by being rubbed against the fur brush. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
