<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a defective image from being formed due to adhesive or paper powder component sticking to a drum surface when a label paper or recycled paper is used. <P>SOLUTION: In an image forming apparatus using developer with fine powder particles added thereto, a back contrast is changed over by detection or inputting of the type of transfer material so that fine powder particles with a reverse polarity to the toner are developed and the fine powder particles are disposed between the transfer material and a drum to prevent the adhesive or the paper powder components from directly sticking to the drum. The changing over of the back contrast is carried out by variation of electrified potential, developing bias voltage and exposure amount. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
