<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image forming apparatus for more easily and stably reducing irregularities in a toner image caused in an area where sheet material passes through a transfer part on a backward side in a sheet material conveying direction when the sheet material passes through the transfer part and its leading edge is introduced to the fixing nip of a fixing part. <P>SOLUTION: The image forming apparatus has a control means 5 (55) controlling so that the toner image Ta which should be formed in a specified image area E specified by setting a position separated from the leading edge Pa of the sheet material P in the conveying direction C to the side of the trailing edge thereof by a distance L as reference may be formed of a pixel having smaller size than standard size in an image forming part 2 when the length of the conveying path of the sheet material P between the transfer position TN of the transfer part 3 and the position of the introducing side end of the fixing nip FN is defined as L. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
