An image forming apparatus comprises: a photosensitive element; a charger electrostatically charging a surface of the photosensitive element uniformly at a voltage of a polarity; an exposure device exposing the charged surface of the photosensitive element, to a light, to form an electrostatic latent image; a developing device depositing a developer on the latent image, to form a developer image; a device for transferring the developer image onto a transfer object; and a developer removing device comprising a cleaning member, to which a voltage is applied to generate a cleaning bias between the cleaning member and photosensitive element, to remove a waste developer adhering to the photosensitive element after the developer image is transferred, and which is disposed to act on a part of the surface of the photosensitive element having been charged by the charger and at which the developer image is not formed yet.
